EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored halftone reproduction takes us back in time to the serene countryside near Lancaster, Pennsylvania, circa 1900. The image showcases a picturesque scene of Amish carriages gracefully traversing a peaceful road. These vintage carriages, pulled by majestic horses, represent an enduring symbol of American heritage and traditional values. The Amish community depicted here is deeply rooted in their faith and adherence to centuries-old customs. Their Protestant beliefs have shaped their way of life, emphasizing simplicity and separation from modern society. This illustration provides a glimpse into the religious practices that have defined this sect for generations. As we delve into history through this artwork, it becomes evident that transportation played a crucial role in shaping rural life during the late 19th century. The signpost visible on the side of the road reminds us that travel was not as effortless as it is today; instead, it required careful navigation along these scenic routes. This print invites us to appreciate both the artistic beauty captured within its frame and the rich tapestry of religion and history woven throughout Lancaster's landscape. It serves as a testament to North America's diverse cultural fabric while reminding us of simpler times when horse-drawn carriages were an integral part of daily life
