EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 1870s, capturing a significant moment in American history - the harvesting of ice on the Hudson River. The image is an illustration from "American Pictures Drawn With Pen And Pencil" by Rev Samuel Manning, dating back to circa 1880. In this antique depiction, we witness a scene that showcases both the beauty and laborious nature of this historical practice. Men are seen cutting large blocks of ice from the frozen river with precision and skill, while others work together to preserve these valuable resources for future use. The horizontal composition allows us to fully appreciate the vastness of the icy landscape stretching out before them. As we gaze upon this piece, it serves as a reminder of how our ancestors harnessed their surroundings for survival and progress. It symbolizes not only their ingenuity but also their resilience in adapting to harsh climates. Ken Welsh's expertly curated collection brings forth such historical gems that transport us through time. This particular print captures a pivotal era in United States' history when natural resources played a vital role in shaping communities and industries along rivers like the Hudson. With its rich detail and evocative atmosphere, this print invites us to reflect on our past while appreciating how far we have come as a nation.
