EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century in western North Carolina. The scene depicts a bustling village tavern with a stagecoach parked outside, ready to embark on its journey. Created by Arthur Burdett Frost in 1880, this wood engraving beautifully captures the essence of daily life during that era. The attention to detail is remarkable as we observe men and women going about their business on the dirt road. A man stands near the coach, overseeing the loading of luggage onto its roof while a young boy eagerly watches nearby. Horses and oxen are harnessed together, pulling carts along the street as villagers go about their day. The tavern itself exudes charm with its welcoming porch adorned with potted plants and an inviting balcony above. We can imagine patrons enjoying refreshments inside or taking respite from their travels before continuing their journey. This print not only showcases an important mode of transportation at that time but also provides a glimpse into rural American life in the Southeast region. It serves as a reminder of how much our world has evolved since then, yet it also highlights elements that remain timeless - community gathering places and people's desire for exploration and adventure. As part of The Granger Collection's vast archive, this historical artwork allows us to appreciate both the artistic talent behind it and gain insight into our rich cultural heritage.
