American Homestead Winter Currier & Ives Vintage Print Carved Pine FrameThis is a beautiful lithograph reprint by Currier and Ivestitled American Homestead Winter.A man carrying a load of firing wood followed by his faithful dog, a solitary cow standing near its barn in the background, a man leaving the side door of his house carrying a bucket, and a man and woman leaving the home in a sleigh carriage driven by two horses down a country road – all orchestrate to create the nostalgic beauty which Currier and Ives created as the nation attempted to forget the pains of the Civil War.Undoubtedly a New England vignette, it resonates with Americans from all parts, especially those with a connection to the seasonal changes which form the basis of this classic series of 4 prints published c. 1868.
