EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Thanksgiving Day: Ways and Means" takes us back to the year 1858, immersing us in a scene of bustling activity. The image, originally featured in Harper's Weekly on November 27th of that year, captures the essence of Thanksgiving preparations during this historic era. In the foreground, we witness a lively marketplace where people are engaged in buying and selling turkeys. A sense of anticipation fills the air as families search for the perfect centerpiece for their Thanksgiving feast. Turkeys can be seen being chased by eager buyers or perched atop haystacks awaiting their fate. The artist behind this engraving is Winslow Homer, known for his ability to depict everyday American life with great detail and emotion. Through his skilled hand, he brings to life not only the commercial aspect but also the spirit of celebration associated with this beloved holiday. As our eyes wander through this snapshot frozen in time, we notice other elements that add depth to the composition. A rooster struts confidently nearby—a symbol of farm life and perhaps an indicator that these turkeys were raised locally. This connection between nature's bounty and communal gratitude is at the heart of Thanksgiving traditions. Overall, "Thanksgiving Day: Ways and Means" transports us back over a century ago when communities came together to celebrate abundance amidst humble beginnings. It serves as a reminder that despite evolving customs and changing times, gratitude remains timeless - an enduring sentiment woven into America's rich cultural fabric.
