EDITORS COMMENTS
The haunting image captures the desperate reality faced by the Pilgrims in 1623 during what became known as the "starving time" in Plymouth Colony, Massachusetts. In this wood engraving from the 19th century, we witness a scene of unimaginable hardship and deprivation. A group of settlers huddles together inside a small cabin, their faces etched with exhaustion and despair. The mother cradles her baby in her arms while the father looks on helplessly. Poverty hangs heavy in the air as they await their meager daily ration - five kernels of corn per person. Every grain is counted and carefully distributed, symbolizing both hope and desperation. It is a stark reminder of just how dire their circumstances were during that fateful spring. The settlement itself can be seen through an open window, offering no solace or respite from their suffering. This wood engraving serves as a poignant testament to the resilience and determination of these early American colonists. Despite enduring unimaginable hardships, they persevered against all odds to forge a new life for themselves in an unfamiliar land. As we gaze upon this print, let us remember those who came before us - pioneers who braved immense challenges so that future generations could thrive. May it serve as a solemn reminder of our shared history and inspire gratitude for all that we have today.
