EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Snowy Turnpike, 1795" takes us back in time to a wintry day on the Lancaster, Pennsylvania Turnpike. The image beautifully captures the essence of travel during that era, showcasing a stage coach making its way through the snow-covered landscape. Painted by Carl Rakeman in 1878, this fine art piece transports us to a time when horse-drawn carriages were the primary mode of transportation. The scene depicts a lone traveler braving the cold weather as he makes his journey along the turnpike. The snow-laden trees and buildings create a picturesque backdrop for this wintery adventure. One can almost feel the crisp air and hear the sound of hooves crunching on fresh snow. This painting not only showcases Rakeman's talent but also serves as an important historical document, reminding us of how far we have come in terms of transportation and technology. It offers a glimpse into life during early American times when travelers relied on stage coaches and inn stops for rest along their arduous journeys. As we admire this artwork, let it serve as a reminder of our progress while appreciating the beauty and simplicity of days gone by.
