EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Granger Art on Demand takes us back to colonial America, offering a glimpse into the harsh realities of punishment during that time. The wood engraving showcases the infamous "COLONIAL STOCKS" a form of public humiliation and confinement for criminals in early settlements. In this scene, we witness a criminal trapped within the stocks, his head and hands immobilized by sturdy wooden boards. The engraving's intricate details emphasize the discomfort and shame endured by those subjected to this punishment. As an American artifact from the 17th century, it serves as a stark reminder of our nation's historical roots. The image evokes mixed emotions - curiosity about what crime led to such consequences, sympathy for the individual enduring this public spectacle, and perhaps even relief that society has evolved beyond such methods of discipline. It also prompts reflection on how justice was perceived in colonial times compared to modern standards. Through this powerful visual representation, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand one aspect of life as a settler or colonist in America. This print invites us to explore our history with open eyes and appreciate how far we have come as a society while acknowledging the lessons learned from our past mistakes.
