EDITORS COMMENTS
Leghorn, from the City Flags series (N6) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands, 1887 captures the vibrant essence of this Italian seaport in exquisite detail. This stunning lithograph print showcases a bustling cityscape with its iconic red and white flag fluttering proudly against the backdrop of a serene blue sea. The close-up view allows us to appreciate the intricate craftsmanship of this trade card, which was once part of a collectible series by Allen & Ginter. The lithography technique used brings out the vivid colors and fine details that make this artwork truly captivating. As we delve into the image, our eyes are drawn to a fleet of sailing boats gracefully gliding through Leghorn's historic port. The skyline is dotted with architectural gems that speak volumes about the rich heritage and identity of this coastal gem in Tuscany. An inset text provides valuable context while adding an educational element to this visual masterpiece. It invites us to explore not only Leghorn but also other cities featured in Allen & Ginter's City Flags series. This print serves as a window into history, transporting us back to late 19th-century Italy when cigarette cards were cherished collectibles. Now preserved within museum archives like The Met, it reminds us of both the artistry involved in printing such cards and their role as cultural artifacts. With its combination of beauty and historical significance, 'Leghorn' offers viewers an enchanting glimpse into another time and place.
