EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Whittiers House in Danvers, Massachusetts, circa 1897. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but the significance of this historical site cannot be understated. This was once the home of John Greenleaf Whittier (1807-1892), a renowned American Quaker and abolitionist. Located in Danvers, originally known as Salem Village, this town is most famously associated with the infamous 1692 Salem witch trials. However, beyond its dark past lies a rich history that encompasses literature, religion, and architecture. The photograph is taken from "A Tour Through the New World America" by Professor Geo. R. Cromwell, published by C. N. Greig & Co. , London around 1897. It offers us a glimpse into the architectural beauty of Whittiers House's exterior facade and surrounding gardens. As we observe this monochrome image captured during daylight hours, we are transported to another era - the nineteenth century - where houses like these stood as testaments to both personal residences and cultural landmarks. Whittiers House stands proudly amidst its country surroundings in Essex County while serving as a testament to John Greenleaf Whittier's legacy as an influential figure in American literature and his unwavering commitment to social justice through his abolitionist beliefs. This print serves not only as a visual representation of history but also prompts us to reflect on how our present is shaped by those who came before us – their ideas, struggles for equality, and contributions that continue to resonate today.
