EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the 19th century captures a singing meeting of the Shakers, a branch of Protestantism, in Lebanon, New York circa 1870. The image is filled with vibrant colors and intricate details that bring to life this momentous gathering of believers.
The Shakers were known for their unique style of worship which included ecstatic dancing and singing as a form of spiritual expression. In this print, we see members of the community coming together to raise their voices in harmony, creating a beautiful symphony that resonates throughout the room.
The women in the image are dressed modestly yet elegantly, embodying the simplicity and grace that defined Shaker culture. One woman stands out as she takes on the role of lead singer, her voice soaring above the rest as she leads her fellow worshippers in song.
As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we are transported back to an era where faith was at the center of daily life and communal gatherings like these provided solace and strength to those who participated. This engraving serves as a reminder of the power of music and fellowship in bringing people together in worship and celebration.
