EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored woodcut print takes us back in time to the early days of logging in the White Mountains of Maine or New Hampshire. The scene depicts a bustling mountainous landscape, where American lumberjacks are hard at work amidst the snowy winter backdrop. This vintage illustration from the 18th or 19th century showcases the arduous labor involved in timber industry during that era. The image transports us to a bygone era, where oxen were used as loyal companions and indispensable tools for hauling logs through treacherous terrain. The colonial settlers can be seen working diligently alongside their trusty animals, felling trees and preparing them for transportation. As we admire this historic artwork, it is impossible not to appreciate the resilience and determination exhibited by these early loggers who braved harsh winters and unforgiving landscapes to fuel America's growing economy. The pine trees towering above serve as a reminder of North America's rich natural resources that played a crucial role in shaping its history. This artful portrayal captures both the beauty of nature and the industrious spirit that defined this period. It serves as an important testament to our nation's past while also highlighting how far we have come since those pioneering days.
