EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense and chaotic scene of the Great Railroad Strike of 1877. The wood engraving, sourced from a contemporary American newspaper, depicts the burning of the roundhouse in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. In this historic moment, a powerful movement led by striking railroad workers engulfed the city streets with unrest. The image showcases an exterior view of the roundhouse set ablaze against a late evening sky. The destruction caused by rioting strikers is evident as rubble and vandalism surround the building. The flames illuminate the surrounding area, casting an eerie glow on nearby railroad tracks and buildings. This engraving serves as a haunting reminder of one of America's most significant labor uprisings. It symbolizes not only the physical ruin left behind but also represents a turning point in worker rights and industrial relations during that era. As we gaze upon this piece from Granger Art on Demand's collection, we are transported back to 1877 when tensions ran high between laborers and corporations across North America. This image encapsulates both defiance and desperation felt by those who fought for fair treatment amidst harsh working conditions. Let us reflect on this pivotal moment in American history while appreciating how art can preserve such impactful events for future generations to learn from and remember.
