In this wood engraving from 1867, we are transported back in time to witness a popular holiday sport of the era - Turkey shooting. The image showcases a group of American hunters, armed with rifles and filled with excitement, as they embark on their Thanksgiving pastime. The men stand tall and proud in the middle of an idyllic woodland setting, ready to test their skills against these elusive birds. Their determined expressions reveal the thrill that comes with pursuing such a challenging target. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every stroke, capturing the essence of each hunter's attire and weapon. This print serves as a reminder of America's rich hunting tradition and its deep-rooted connection to nature. It encapsulates not only the physical act of hunting but also the camaraderie shared among these men during this cherished holiday season. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we can't help but be transported back in time - imagining ourselves amidst those autumnal woods, feeling the crisp air on our faces while eagerly awaiting our turn to take aim at one of these magnificent creatures. The Granger Collection has once again provided us with a glimpse into America's past through their extensive collection. This wood engraving serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a testament to our nation's enduring love for outdoor pursuits like turkey shooting.
