EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century lithograph, titled "Prairie Dog, from Quadrupeds series (N41) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes, 1890" transports us to the vast grasslands of North America. The image showcases a prairie dog in its natural habitat, captured with remarkable detail and precision. The prairie dog stands out against the backdrop of rolling hills and endless plains that define the American landscape. Its alert posture suggests an inherent curiosity about its surroundings, as if it is aware of being observed by both nature enthusiasts and art admirers alike. Printed as a cigarette card for Allen & Ginter, this artwork represents more than just a commercial product; it serves as a testament to the rich heritage and natural history of the United States. The lithography technique employed in creating this print brings forth vibrant colors that breathe life into every blade of grass surrounding our furry subject. As we gaze upon this piece from Keystone Archives' collection, we are reminded of the wagon trains that once traversed these very lands during westward expansion. It evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era when wildlife roamed freely across untamed territories. Let this exquisite lithotint transport you back to an age where science met artistry on cigarette cards like these – capturing not only animals but also hearts and imaginations across the country.
