EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Oklahoma City on the historic first day of the Oklahoma land rush, April 22,1889. The image, a contemporary American wood engraving, showcases the bustling exterior of this late 19th-century American camp. In this scene, we witness a vibrant settlement in its early stages of development. A diverse array of frontiersmen and settlers have gathered here to claim their piece of land in what was once Indian Territory. The encampment is filled with activity as people set up tents and covered wagons amidst towering trees that dot the landscape. Transportation plays a crucial role in this frontier town; horses pull carts and covered wagons traverse through plains that stretch endlessly towards the horizon. This booming city embodies Manifest Destiny and represents westward expansion at its finest. The energy surrounding this momentous event is palpable - it's an extraordinary sight to behold! As pioneers stake their claims and build their futures, they shape not only Oklahoma City but also contribute to shaping America itself. This remarkable print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to step back in time and experience firsthand the excitement and determination that characterized those who participated in this legendary land rush. It serves as a powerful reminder of our nation's history and how far we have come since those pioneering days on the Great Plains.
