EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph print, titled "Andrew Jackson, from the series Great Americans (N76) for Duke brand cigarettes" transports us back to 1888 America. The portrait showcases the esteemed General Andrew Jackson, who later became the seventh President of the United States. Known for his military prowess and political influence, Jackson played a significant role in shaping American history. The artist skillfully captures Jackson's strong and determined demeanor as he gazes into the distance. Dressed in colonial attire with a hint of Native American symbolism, this portrayal reflects both his involvement in the Black Hawk War and his complex relationship with indigenous communities. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this collectible cigarette card offers a glimpse into an era marked by colonialism and political upheaval. It serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time to preserve our nation's heritage. While not mentioning its commercial use or association with Duke brand cigarettes, we appreciate this artwork for its historical significance rather than its intended purpose. This lithograph invites viewers to contemplate the complexities of politics and power during America's formative years while showcasing one of its most influential figures - Andrew Jackson.
