EDITORS COMMENTS
Bridal Rose: Happy Love, from the series Floral Beauties and Language of Flowers (N75) for Duke brand cigarettes, 1892". This vibrant color lithograph captures the essence of love and romance in a bygone era. The image features a delicate Bridal Rose, beautifully rendered with intricate details that showcase its natural beauty. As part of the "Floral Beauties and Language of Flowers" series, this print not only serves as an advertisement for Duke brand cigarettes but also celebrates the Victorian fascination with flowers and their symbolic meanings. The Bridal Rose holds a special significance in conveying happiness and love, making it an ideal choice to represent Duke's tobacco products. Its soft pink petals exude femininity while hinting at the allure associated with smoking during that time period. This cigarette card is both collectible and historically significant as it reflects America's industrial growth in the late 19th century. Created by Donaldson Brothers' Lithograph Company, known for their expertise in commercial color lithography, this print showcases their mastery in capturing nature's splendor through art. The lithotint technique employed here adds depth to the colors, creating a visually captivating composition. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this piece stands as a testament to James Buchanan Duke's legacy as one of America's prominent tobacco tycoons. Beyond its commercial use or association with American Tobacco Company, this artwork invites us to appreciate the intersection between nature's beauty and artistic expression within our cultural heritage.
