EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving, created in 1882 by Howard Pyle and now available as a print from Granger Art on Demand, transports us back to the 18th century American colonies. The scene depicts an American colonist indulging in his morning dram of rum. Dressed in a stylish overcoat and tricorn hat, he exudes the essence of colonial fashion. The attention to detail in this engraving is remarkable. From the intricate engravings on his glasses to the carefully crafted decanter of rum beside him, every element adds depth and authenticity to this historical portrayal. Pyle's skillful technique brings life to the image, capturing both the physical appearance and character of this early American settler. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of a time when rum played an integral role in daily life for many colonists. It was not only enjoyed for its taste but also served as a form of social currency among these men who were building their lives anew in America. This print from The Granger Collection allows us to appreciate Howard Pyle's talent as well as gain insight into the customs and habits that shaped our nation's history. It serves as a visual reminder that even small moments like enjoying a morning dram can offer glimpses into our past and help us better understand where we come from.
