EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back in time to colonial America, where a settler stands tall and vigilant, guarding his farm against an Indian attack. The scene is inspired by an illustration by the renowned artist Howard Pyle, whose lithograph beautifully captures the intensity of this moment. The settler's strong presence reflects the determination and resilience of those who worked tirelessly to cultivate their land in North America. With a rifle firmly grasped in his hands, he embodies both strength and vulnerability as he protects his livelihood from potential danger. Surrounded by vast farmland stretching into the horizon, it becomes evident that agriculture was at the heart of early American society. The farmer's commitment to tending his fields is evident through the ploughing taking place nearby. This engraving serves as a reminder of the tireless efforts required for successful farming during this era. Through this image, we gain insight into life on a colonial farm - hard work intertwined with constant vigilance against potential threats. It encapsulates not only the physical labor involved but also highlights how settlers had to be prepared for any challenges that may arise. This evocative print allows us to appreciate both the beauty and hardships experienced by those who shaped early America through their dedication to farming and protection of their homesteads.
