My Little House on the Prairie

A really artistic image in the cabin. Sometimes it makes me think of the women who lived in the West from 1870-1910, a time before electricity and indoor water. We tend to see them as stocky, stern, and therefore somewhat asexual. There is absolutely no doubt that life then was hard, but surely it also had a soft side, and a beautiful young woman just as lovely as today, and perhaps even more so, being so rare on the range.
