EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving titled "Pilgrims: Thanksgiving, 1621" depicts a significant moment in American history. After the colonists at Plymouth successfully harvested their first crops in 1621, Governor Bradford decided to celebrate this achievement by sending four men out fowling. This act was intended to bring about a more special and joyous occasion for all. The image showcases the early settlers of America, dressed in traditional pilgrim attire, as they gather around a table filled with an abundance of food. A turkey takes center stage on the table, symbolizing the iconic bird that has become synonymous with Thanksgiving celebrations today. The engraving beautifully captures the daily life of these brave pioneers who ventured into the unknown to establish a new world in North America. Men and women alike are depicted, highlighting their shared efforts and contributions towards building a prosperous settlement. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are reminded of the hardships faced by these early colonists and their resilience in overcoming them. It serves as a visual testament to gratitude and unity during challenging times—a timeless reminder that even amidst adversity, there is always room for celebration and thanksgiving. This remarkable print from The Granger Collection allows us to reflect on our roots as Americans while appreciating how far we have come since those humble beginnings at Plymouth Rock.
