William Lockhart Made The First Thanksgiving 1621, an oil painting by Jean Leon Gerome Ferris (1863–1930) depicting Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians sharing an autumn harvest feast. Historians say that—despite common perceptions—the stereotypical Pilgrim garb was never worn by the original settlers and the Native American look shown was borrowed from tribes in America’s Great Plains.
We at GV would like to wish everyone a wonderful holiday filled with family, friends, and of course, great food and drink.
Have a very Happy Thanksgiving!
