EDITORS COMMENTS
This wood engraving, titled "Frontier Family, 1755" takes us back to a tumultuous period in American history during the French and Indian War. The scene depicts a family of American colonists desperately fleeing eastward in response to relentless Native American attacks on their frontier settlement. With fear etched on their faces, the husband leads the way with a rifle in hand while his wife clings tightly to their infant child. Their young son follows closely behind, mirroring his parents' concern. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every element tells a story. The settler woman's tricorn hat and neckerchief signify her colonial identity, while her husband's determined gaze reveals his determination to protect his loved ones at all costs. In the distance, an indigenous rider serves as a haunting reminder of the dangers lurking in this untamed land. Through this powerful image, we witness not only the physical struggle faced by these brave pioneers but also their resilience and unwavering spirit amidst adversity. It serves as a poignant tribute to those who risked everything for a chance at freedom and prosperity in America's early days. Created by Felix O. C. Darley in 1877, this wood engraving transports us back over two centuries ago when survival meant constant vigilance and migration was driven by necessity rather than choice. It stands as both an artistic masterpiece and historical documentation of one family's harrowing journey through an unforgiving wilderness during a pivotal moment in our nation's past
