EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 1800s, a time when pioneers embarked on a courageous journey towards the Mississippi Valley. The hand-colored woodcut of a 19th-century Darley illustration beautifully captures the essence of this historical moment. In this vintage image, we witness an American family venturing into the vast wilderness of the West. With their trusty pet by their side, they traverse along a traditional dirt road, symbolizing their determination and resilience in carving out a new life on the frontier. The pioneer's covered wagon, pulled by sturdy oxen, becomes their faithful companion throughout this arduous expedition. As they travel through North America's heartland, crossing territories like Northwest Territory and Middle West, they leave behind trails that would shape history forever. This artwork not only showcases transportation methods of that era but also serves as a window into United States' rich past. It reminds us of our ancestors' bravery and pioneering spirit as they paved the way for future generations. Preserved by North Wind Picture Archives with utmost care and attention to detail, this historic piece allows us to connect with our roots and appreciate how far we have come since those early days on the National Road or National Pike. Let it serve as an inspiration for all who gaze upon it - reminding us that progress is built upon the foundations laid by these intrepid settlers who ventured westward in search of new horizons.
