EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century lithograph, titled "Plumed Partridge, from the Game Birds series (N40) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes" transports us back to a time when cigarette cards were cherished collectibles. Created between 1888 and 1890 by American tobacco company Allen & Ginter, this exquisite print showcases the natural beauty of an elusive game bird. The Plumed Partridge takes center stage in this artwork, its vibrant plumage meticulously captured through lithography. Every intricate detail of its feathers is brought to life with stunning precision and artistry. The lithotint technique used here adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing our appreciation for the partridge's graceful form. As we gaze at this magnificent creature, we are reminded of America's rich wildlife heritage. This piece serves as a testament to both the country's diverse fauna and the scientific advancements made during that era. It invites us to marvel at nature's wonders while also acknowledging our human fascination with hunting and game birds. Beyond its historical significance, this print stands as a work of art in its own right. Its composition exudes elegance and balance, drawing our eyes towards the partridge while maintaining harmony with its surroundings. The muted colors evoke a sense of tranquility that further enhances our connection with nature. In preserving this remarkable piece from Allen & Ginter's legacy, Heritage Images allows us to appreciate not only their artistic prowess but also their contribution to documenting America's natural history.
