EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Thanksgiving in Camp" takes us back to the year 1862. The scene depicts a group of men gathered around a campfire in celebration of Thanksgiving. The atmosphere is filled with joy and camaraderie as soldiers relax and enjoy each other's company amidst their temporary home - tents. The image showcases the resilience and spirit of these brave soldiers who found solace in coming together during such a significant holiday. Despite being far away from their families, they created their own sense of belonging within this makeshift community. As we observe the scene closely, we can almost feel the warmth emanating from the crackling fire while imagining the tantalizing aroma of treats being prepared for this special occasion. It is heartwarming to witness these men finding comfort in one another's presence, sharing stories, laughter, and perhaps even reminiscing about past Thanksgivings spent at home. "Thanksgiving in Camp" serves as a poignant reminder that even during times of hardship and separation, human connection remains essential for our well-being. This historical print captures an important moment where gratitude triumphs over adversity, reminding us to cherish our loved ones and find solace in moments shared with others – no matter where we may find ourselves on this vast continent called North America.
