EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures the essence of rural American life in the early 19th century. Created by Thomas Le Clear, this oil painting titled "Children in a Storm" takes us back to a simpler time when children found joy and adventure amidst nature's fury. In this scene, we witness a group of boys and girls playing fearlessly outside their rustic homestead as storm clouds gather above them.

One boy holds a bow and arrow, symbolizing their resilience and readiness to face any challenge that comes their way. Le Clear's attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of the weathered buildings that dot the landscape, showcasing America's rich architectural heritage during this period.
