EDITORS COMMENTS
Christmas Morning in Old New York Before the Revolution, captured in this stunning illustration from Harpers Weekly, transports us back to a bygone era. Published on the 25th of December 1880, artist Howard Pyle skillfully brings to life a bustling street scene filled with holiday cheer and historical charm. As we gaze upon the print, our eyes are immediately drawn to the lively tavern at the center of the image. Its warm glow spills out onto the snow-covered streets, attracting a diverse crowd that includes soldiers, beggars, and townsfolk going about their day. The details are exquisite - from the tobacconist's shop adorned with festive decorations to a blind man bravely navigating through the throngs of people. The winter landscape is beautifully depicted; every flake of snow seems to shimmer under an ethereal light. It evokes a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when Christmas was celebrated with genuine warmth and community spirit. This artwork belongs to the esteemed Brandywine School tradition and showcases Pyle's mastery as an illustrator. His ability to capture both architectural accuracy and human emotion is truly remarkable. Displayed proudly in this private collection today, this print serves as a window into history – reminding us of how Christmas used to be celebrated in old New York before America underwent its revolutionary transformation.
