EDITORS COMMENTS
The engraving titled "Bridgers Creek was lonely enough at any time" captures the essence of isolation and solitude in a historical context. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print takes us back to early settler days in America. In this scene, we see a small cabin nestled amidst a snowy landscape. The cold winter has covered everything with a thick blanket of snow, emphasizing the harsh conditions faced by those who ventured into uncharted territories. The settlers relied on Bridgers Creek for their basic needs - timber for shelter and firewood to keep warm during these unforgiving winters. The image evokes a sense of loneliness as it portrays the cabin standing alone against nature's elements. It reminds us that life in these remote areas required immense resilience and self-sufficiency. The simplicity of the wooden structure stands as a testament to human adaptability and resourcefulness. This engraving serves as both a historical document and an artistic representation of early American colonization. It invites contemplation about our connection to nature, our ability to survive adversity, and the sacrifices made by those who came before us. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time, reminded of the challenges faced by our ancestors while appreciating their determination to forge ahead despite overwhelming odds.
