EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-colored woodcut print depicts a chilling incident from the early 1800s in Ohio. The image showcases Samuel H. Huntington, a brave traveler who found himself under attack by a pack of ferocious wolves while traversing an American road. As he rode on horseback through the dense forest, these wild animals emerged from their wintry habitat to confront him. The vintage illustration, created by the renowned artist Howard Pyle, captures the essence of danger and adventure that characterized life on the frontier during this era. It transports us back to a time when pioneers like Huntington braved treacherous trails in search of new opportunities in the Northwest Territory. The scene is filled with tension as Huntington's horse rears up in fear while he valiantly defends himself against his lupine assailants. This traditional artwork serves as a powerful reminder of our nation's rich history and the challenges faced by those who paved the way for future generations. Through this artful representation, we are transported into an untamed North America where settlers battled not only nature but also wilid animals lurking within its depths. This piece offers us a glimpse into an extraordinary moment frozen in time – one that reminds us of both our vulnerability and resilience as human beings venturing into uncharted territories.
