EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "NEW ENGLAND: ACTIVITIES" takes us back to the early colonial days in North America. Created by Johann Theodore de Bry in 1618, this line engraving beautifully captures the diverse range of employments and recreational pursuits for gentlemen in New England. In this picturesque scene, we witness a noble man on horseback, skillfully wielding his rifle while hunting amidst the wilderness. His loyal dog accompanies him as they explore the untamed landscape surrounding a serene lake shore. A falcon perched on his arm symbolizes the art of falconry, a popular pastime among English settlers during that era. The image also showcases other activities enjoyed by these early colonists. A fisherman can be seen casting his fishing rod into a nearby pond, hoping for a bountiful catch. In the distance, another gentleman stands proudly with his musket or shotgun at hand, ready to protect and provide for his settlement. The print not only highlights the adventurous spirit of these men but also emphasizes their connection with nature and their ability to thrive in an unfamiliar land. It serves as a reminder of New England's rich history and its significance in shaping American culture. As we admire this exquisite piece from The Granger Collection's archives, it transports us back to an era where life was simpler yet filled with excitement and exploration.
