Titled simply "Easter," this picture takes the holiday itself as its subject rather than a particular church, town or event. Easter is the most important feast in the Christian calendar, marking the resurrection of Jesus, and it has long been observed with sunrise services, church bells, new clothes and spring flowers. Over time, folk customs such as decorated eggs, egg hunts and the Easter parade became common in American life, so images of the day often blend religious devotion with seasonal celebration. Notice which of these elements the scene emphasizes.
