EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical print titled "Advertisement for Rices Seeds" captures the essence of 19th-century American horticulture with a touch of surrealism. The colourful lithograph showcases an anthropomorphic couple, a man and a woman, strolling through a garden filled with luscious vegetables. Dressed in elegant attire, the husband dons a top hat while his wife exudes grace and charm. The clever advertisement highlights the similarity between this loving couple and two peas in a pod, emphasizing their close relationship. It humorously suggests that just like these peas are perfectly matched, so too are the seeds from Rices brand. The playfulness extends to the vegetable characters themselves as they seem to come alive within this imaginative scene. Created by an unknown American artist from the 19th century, this artwork is now part of the esteemed collection at New-York Historical Society in USA. Its timeless appeal transcends generations as it continues to captivate viewers today. Whether you're passionate about gardening or simply appreciate artistic creativity, this print offers both beauty and humour. It reminds us that even in advertising campaigns from centuries ago, there was room for imagination and visual storytelling. So take a moment to stroll through this delightful garden world created by Bridgeman Images' reproduction of "Advertisement for Rices Seeds" where art meets horticulture in perfect harmony.
