EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white line drawing by C. W. Jefferys, titled "LAND CLEARING, c1830" transports us back to the early days of American farming. The image depicts a group of determined settlers working tirelessly to clear the land for their future farm. In this scene, we witness the arduous process of transforming untouched wilderness into fertile fields. The settlers can be seen wielding axes and saws as they skillfully chop down towering trees that once dominated the landscape. Logs are stacked neatly in preparation for further use, showcasing their resourcefulness and careful planning. As smoke billows from controlled fires in the background, it becomes evident that burning is an integral part of this land clearing endeavor. This technique not only helps remove unwanted vegetation but also enriches the soil with nutrients necessary for successful farming. The artist's attention to detail captures both the physical labor involved and the determination etched on each settler's face. Their unwavering commitment to creating a new life on this untamed frontier is palpable through Jefferys' masterful strokes. "LAND CLEARING, c1830" serves as a poignant reminder of our ancestors' resilience and perseverance in shaping America's agricultural landscape. It stands as a testament to their unwavering spirit and unyielding work ethic - qualities that continue to define our nation today.
