EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from Puritan Christmas in 1621, where a stern Puritan Governor interrupts the festive sporting activities of early American settlers. The atmosphere is damp and somber, reflecting the strict morality and traditional values of the Puritans during this time period.
The Governor, portrayed as a killjoy figure, stands with a wet blanket draped over his shoulder as he prohibits the settlers from partaking in their Christmas celebrations. His disapproving gaze conveys his disdain for any form of merriment or frivolity that goes against their strict religious beliefs.
The historical significance of this image lies in its portrayal of the clash between English customs brought over by the settlers and the regional traditions enforced by the Puritan authorities in New England. It serves as a reminder of how different cultural practices were suppressed in early America under Puritan rule.
Despite being seen as oppressive figures, it is important to acknowledge that these Governors played a crucial role in shaping the moral fabric of society during this period. This print offers us a glimpse into a moment frozen in time, allowing us to reflect on how far we have come since those early days of American history.
