EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by Howard Pyle from 1882, we are transported back to colonial America during the Christmas season. The image depicts a man carrying a dish filled with flaming alcohol, raisins, and nuts floating in it. This intriguing scene captures the essence of the traditional Christmas parlor game known as snap-dragon. Snap-dragon was a popular pastime during the late 17th century in America, where participants would try to pluck out raisins from a dish of burning brandy without getting burned themselves. The flickering flame illuminates the room's interior, creating an atmosphere of warmth and merriment. Howard Pyle's meticulous attention to detail brings this historical moment to life. From the expressions on the men's faces to their colonial attire, every element is expertly captured in this engraving. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when entertainment was found within close-knit communities during festive occasions like Christmas. This print offers us a glimpse into our rich cultural heritage and reminds us of cherished traditions that have been passed down through generations. Granger Art on Demand presents this remarkable piece from their collection, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance for years to come.
