EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a haunting scene from the 19th century cattle industry in Chicago. In this engraving, we witness the harsh reality of slaughtering and skinning cattle in a stockyard slaughterhouse. Chained and helpless, these cows endure an inhumane treatment that reflects the cruel nature of their work environment. The image showcases the grueling labor undertaken by workers as they butcher these animals for meat production. The historical significance of this illustration cannot be understated, as it provides us with a glimpse into America's past when such practices were prevalent. Published in 1886 as part of "America Revisited: From The Bay of New York to The Gulf of Mexico" this archival picture serves as a reminder of how far our society has come in terms of animal welfare and ethical treatment. Ken Welsh's expertise is evident through his ability to capture both the brutality and historical importance within this single frame. As viewers, we are transported back to an era where such scenes were commonplace, allowing us to reflect on our progress towards more humane practices today. This print is not only a testament to American history but also serves as a powerful reminder that compassion should always guide our actions towards all living beings.
