Because the record gives only the title, this picture is best understood through the holiday it names. Thanksgiving became a national observance during the Civil War, when Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national day of thanksgiving in 1863. By the early twentieth century, pictures of family dinners, harvest tables, and autumn gatherings had become a familiar part of American magazines and illustrated collections, reflecting the holiday's growing role as a symbol of home and shared tradition.
