EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "Trapping in the Adirondacks (Every Saturday, Vol. I, New Series), October 24,1870" takes us back to a bygone era of adventure and survival in the heart of America's untamed wilderness. Captured by renowned artist John Parker Davis, this wood engraving showcases the essence of trapping as a way of life. In this scene from Homer Winslow's masterpiece, we witness a lone trapper navigating his canoe along a serene river. With oars poised skillfully above calm waters, he glides silently through dense forests that stretch endlessly towards the horizon. The trapper's keen eyes scan his surroundings for signs of prey while his trusty ferret stands guard at his side. The image transports us to an age when men relied on their wit and resourcefulness to survive amidst nature's challenges. Armed with guns and traps slung over their shoulders, these intrepid hunters ventured deep into uncharted territories where danger lurked around every bend. Davis' meticulous attention to detail brings forth not only the physicality but also the spirit of these early pioneers who sought sustenance and livelihood from their natural surroundings. This historic photograph serves as a window into an era long past – one that shaped our nation's identity as it expanded westward. Displayed proudly at The Metropolitan Museum of Art today, this
