Originally introduced to North America by European settlers, windmills were essential for pumping water and grinding grain. The design shown in this print reflects a typical "farm-style" windmill, often seen throughout the Midwest and Texas, recognizable by its multi-bladed fan and wooden structure. These structures not only served practical purposes but also became enduring symbols of self-sufficiency and the agrarian American spirit.
