EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph titled "Apteryx, from the Birds of the Tropics series (N5) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands, 1889" takes us back to the enchanting 19th century. Created by Allen & Ginter, this exquisite print showcases a flightless bird known as Apteryx or commonly referred to as kiwi. The close-up view allows us to marvel at its unique features and intricate plumage. Perched on a rocky surface in its natural habitat of Aotearoa (New Zealand), the kiwi stands with an air of elegance and curiosity. Its brown feathers blend harmoniously with the surrounding environment, while its long beak bends forward inquisitively. This lithograph truly captures the essence and beauty of this remarkable creature. The attention to detail is evident in every stroke of lithography used to create this piece. The color palette chosen adds depth and vibrancy, enhancing our appreciation for both artistry and nature's wonders. Displayed within the Metropolitan Museum's collection, this trade card not only serves as a visual delight but also holds historical significance. It represents an era when cigarette brands like Allen & Ginter sought artistic collaborations that celebrated wildlife diversity across different countries. As we gaze upon this stunning image, let us embrace its timeless charm and acknowledge how it contributes to our understanding of avian species' rich heritage worldwide.
