The Last Days of Harvest
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the rural landscapes of 19th century America. Created by an unknown artist, this image was originally featured in Harper's Weekly, Vol. XVII on December 6,1873. The scene depicts a group of young boys diligently working in a cornfield during autumn. These children, perhaps no older than ten years old, are engaged in the laborious task of husking corn on the cob. Their small figures stand out against the vast expanse of farmland as they contribute to the final days of harvest. This thought-provoking photograph sheds light on the concept of child labor prevalent during that era. It serves as a reminder of how agricultural workers were often subjected to strenuous tasks from an early age, sacrificing their childhood for economic survival. The composition captures both the beauty and hardships associated with farming life. The meticulous engraving technique used adds depth and texture to every detail within this historical snapshot. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (the Met) in New York City, this piece by Winslow Homer has become part of our cultural heritage. As we gaze upon it today, we can't help but reflect on how far society has come since those last days of harvest in 1873 while acknowledging that there is still work to be done towards ensuring fair treatment for all workers worldwide.
