Description
An account of the resource
From the popular printmakers of the 19th century--an estimated 2-3 new works per week--comes this characteristic lithograph of rural life. Its composition is striking for the angled view into a farm's domestic spaces, so viewers see what is "behind" both a farmer (his fields, field hands, equipment) and his wife (a hearth, furnishings, domestic servant). The two of them, along with a daughter, meet in the foreground for a tableau of well-ordered agricultural and domestic economies. Some of the tortured compositions entail the inclusion of hired labor crammed into the frame, yet relegated to the background.

Description
An account of the resource
The subtitle to this Currier & Ives print says a lot: "lightning express trains leaving the junction." At this time, the town of Hornellsville (now known as Hornell) was the dinner stop for an overnight express train between Buffalo and New York City. The image here underwent several modifications over the years: a brighter-hued version, and then one created for the Erie Railway with destinations painted on the railcars and "Hornellsville" appended to the building.
