EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to New Amsterdam, 1640. The image showcases a joyous gathering of holiday guests celebrating the arrival of the New Year. Hand-colored with intricate details, this woodcut from the 19th century beautifully captures the essence of a Dutch household during this era. The scene unfolds in a cozy kitchen where family and friends have gathered to toast and revel in each other's company. Men and women dressed in traditional colonial attire raise their glasses filled with alcohol, symbolizing merriment and camaraderie. This snapshot into daily life offers a glimpse into social customs prevalent during that period. The historic significance of this illustration is undeniable as it portrays an important chapter in American history - the establishment of New Amsterdam, which later became known as New York City. It transports us to a time when Manhattan was still evolving as part of the Dutch colony called New Netherland. As we admire this vintage artwork, we are reminded not only of our rich cultural heritage but also how celebrations have transcended through generations. It serves as a reminder that even amidst challenges faced by early settlers, they found solace and happiness within their homes while embracing traditions that continue to shape our society today
