EDITORS COMMENTS
In this wood engraving from 1858 titled "AMERICA: SLEIGHING, 1858. The race on the hill-side" we are transported back to a scene of exhilarating competition in middle America during winter. The print captures the essence of daily life in that era, showcasing both men and women eagerly participating in a thrilling sled race. The artist skillfully depicts a snowy landscape with a steep hillside as the backdrop for this exciting event. Horses pull beautifully crafted sleds while their drivers expertly navigate through the snow-covered terrain. The whip-wielding competitors demonstrate their determination to win, urging their horses forward amidst cheers and excitement from spectators. This artwork not only showcases an intense sporting moment but also provides insight into transportation methods of the time. Sledding was an essential mode of travel during harsh winters, allowing people to traverse long distances efficiently. The Granger Collection's wood engraving is a testament to American ingenuity and adventurous spirit prevalent during this period. It serves as a reminder of our nation's rich history and how people embraced challenges with enthusiasm and camaraderie. As we admire this remarkable piece, let us be reminded of the resilience and unity that have shaped our great country throughout its existence.
