EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Federal Almanac Weatherwise Boston" takes us back to the 18th century in America. The print showcases an intricate engraving that depicts a celestial scene with an angel blowing a trumpet. This heavenly figure stands atop a cloud, surrounded by other angels and cherubs. The focus of this artwork is undoubtedly the angelic weather forecaster, symbolizing the importance of meteorology in early American society. With his trumpet raised high, he seems to be announcing the arrival of important weather information for Boston and North America as a whole. The level of detail in this lithograph is truly remarkable. From the delicate engravings on each individual feather to the expressions on every angel's face, it is evident that great care was taken in its creation. Displayed prominently within this enchanting scene are references to various elements associated with weather reporting and almanacs - from symbols representing different seasons to celestial bodies like stars and planets. These details further emphasize the significance placed on accurate forecasting during that era. Preserved by the American Antiquarian Society in Worcester, Massachusetts, this print serves as both a historical artifact and a testament to artistic craftsmanship. It offers us a glimpse into early American culture while reminding us of our ongoing fascination with understanding and predicting nature's forces. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, we can now appreciate this beautiful piece from afar without any commercial implications or restrictions imposed upon it.
