EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming turn-of-the-century image captures the essence of the American Thanksgiving celebration, with its two most iconic symbols center stage: a plump, roasted turkey and a beautifully carved pumpkin. Dating back to circa 1910, this photograph transports us to a simpler time, where the focus was on family, community, and the bounty of the harvest. The fourth Thursday in November has been a time for giving thanks in America since the early days of the colonies. The first Thanksgiving feast is believed to have taken place in 1621, when the Pilgrims and Wampanoag Indians shared a harvest meal. Over the centuries, the traditions surrounding this national holiday have evolved, but the core elements have remained the same: gathering with loved ones, sharing a bountiful meal, and expressing gratitude for the blessings of the past year. In this photograph, the turkey, with its golden-brown skin and glistening drippings, is the star of the table. The pumpkin, with its intricate, artful carvings, adds a warm, inviting glow to the scene. Together, they represent the abundance and generosity of the harvest season. The table is set with elegant china, crystal glasses, and silverware, hinting at the refined elegance of the occasion. This image is a beautiful reminder of the customs and symbols that have come to define Thanksgiving in America. It invites us to reflect on the importance of family, community, and gratitude, and to appreciate the simple pleasures of a shared meal.
