St. Patrick's Day in America is the title on this print, and the board it hangs on groups it with other holiday scenes from the same theme. Parades honoring the Irish patron saint became a fixture in American cities during the nineteenth century, when large waves of Irish immigrants settled in places like New York, Boston and Philadelphia. Celebrations of that kind often mixed religious observance, community pride and public display, and they gave immigrant families a visible way to claim a place in local life. Look closely at the crowd and the street setting to see how the holiday was staged for the public.
