The particular place in this 1869 lithograph is the Salmon Branch area of Granby, Connecticut, and the title, *Early Autumn*, names the season it shows. New York publishers Currier & Ives issued many color lithographs of American landscapes like this one for a broad middle-class market, and this print is credited to the painter A. D. Shattuck. Its rural scene reflects the period's fondness for New England countryside, which many viewers read as a picture of settled, orderly life. The harvest mood explains why it fits so naturally with fall and Thanksgiving imagery.
