1787 Capture Daniel Farm Massachusetts Shays Shays Rebellion Petersham

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the late 19th century takes us back to a significant moment in American history - Shays Rebellion of 1787. The image showcases the farm at Petersham, Massachusetts, where Daniel Shays, a prominent figure in this rebellion, was captured on February 4th. The wood engraving beautifully captures the essence of this historic event and allows us to visualize the exterior of the house where Shays' capture took place. The rustic charm of the farmhouse reflects its North American roots and adds an authentic touch to this depiction. Shays Rebellion was a pivotal uprising that occurred after the American Revolutionary War. It highlighted deep-rooted grievances among farmers who were burdened by heavy debt and unfair taxation policies imposed by their state government. Led by Daniel Shays, these rebels sought economic justice and political reform. This powerful image serves as a reminder of how ordinary people can rise up against injustice and fight for their rights. It symbolizes resilience, determination, and unity in times of adversity. As part of Granger Art on Demand's Carousel Collection, this print offers viewers an opportunity to connect with America's past while appreciating the artistry behind historical engravings like this one.
