Lithograph by Kennedy & Lucas’s Lithography (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania); Original printing by Alexander Rider (active 1810–1834); Drawing on stone by Hugh Bridport (1794–c. 1868). The intensity of religious experience common to the Second Great Awakening’s camp meetings is illustrated in this lithograph, which shows a preacher (most likely a Methodist circuit rider) exhorting the attendees.
