Thanksgiving (1928) - J.C. Leyendecker Art Print

Fine Art Prints

Forget cheap reproductions and printable posters. Only the best will do. Velvety matte fine art paper (warm white, archival-grade, 200gsm) with bold, vibrant, non-toxic pigment inks. 

High-definition print lab techniques give you sharper details, deeper saturation and true-to-life tones.

The matte surface keeps glare down and archival-grade materials mean the colors you fall for stay vivid for decades.

Framed Fine Art Prints

Your print arrives framed and ready to hang, so it goes straight from the box to your wall.

Chevron cut wooden frames make a timeless statement in three distinctive colors: black, white and natural.

Each frame is made of sustainably sourced FSC® certified European knotless pine, finished with ultra-clear perspex glaze that’s lighter than glass and shatter-resistant.

Float Framed Canvas Prints

Luscious artist-grade cotton canvas, hand-stretched and finely textured, gives every detail depth and precision. Its natural white surface catches light and color with striking clarity.

A precisely measured floating frame leaves a slim gap around the canvas, so it seems to hover with a sleek, gallery-worthy effect.

Your choice of a black, white or natural frame: all made from sustainably sourced FSC® certified European knotless pine.

Giclée Printing

Two haloed saints of the American November stand on a lemon ochre plaque. A Puritan in a buckled capotain hat cuts his eyes sideways at the boy, and three hundred years crackle across the gap.

J.C. Leyendecker painted this Thanksgiving cover for The Saturday Evening Post in November 1928. Thin cobalt halos hover like bent wire behind the stern Pilgrim and a blond college football player. His chiseled jaw tanned and topped with wind-tousled gold curls.

The elder hugs a brass-clasped Bible against his ribs. A matchlock musket rests on his shoulder, its stock gripped in a hand the color of cured ham. Steel cuirass gleams below his falling-band collar. A coral sash knots over ochre doublet skirts, and a coal-black cloak pools around his arm like wet pitch.

Across the ground line, the footballer's rust red jersey hangs torn off a leather shoulder pad. Canvas pants wear stitched thigh guards the shade of old saddles. A pigskin football waits by his cleats. 

Saturday Evening Post readers carved turkey at noon and packed the bleachers by three for Thanksgiving Day football. Pine needles bristle at their heels, sharp as a colony's first winter, and a tiny cinnabar JCL monogram flares beside the Pilgrim's buckled shoe.
