Thanksgiving is the subject here, and the title is the only detail the record gives, so the picture reads first as a holiday scene. The American observance grew out of autumn harvest feasts and became a national day when Abraham Lincoln proclaimed it in 1863. Images of the holiday often center on a family gathered around a laden table, a custom that became its lasting visual shorthand. If you look closely, the table setting, the clothing, and the arrangement of people can tell you as much about the period as about the holiday itself.
