EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and captivating print titled "Buttercups: Riches" is part of the series Floral Beauties and Language of Flowers, commissioned by Duke brand cigarettes in 1892. Created by the renowned Donaldson Brothers, this commercial color lithograph showcases the exquisite beauty of buttercups, a symbol of wealth and prosperity. Intricately detailed and bursting with life, the buttercup flowers take center stage against a backdrop that exudes Victorian charm. The delicate petals are rendered with precision, their golden hue radiating warmth and vitality. Each flower seems to dance gracefully as if celebrating its own abundance. The inclusion of these enchanting blooms on cigarette cards reflects both the industrial prowess and artistic sensibilities of 19th-century America. This collectible piece not only serves as an advertisement for Duke cigarettes but also pays homage to nature's wonders. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this lithograph transports viewers back in time to an era when tobacco companies sought to captivate consumers through visually stunning imagery. It reminds us that art can be found even in unexpected places – like a cigarette card – inviting contemplation on the intersection between commerce and creativity. As we admire this remarkable work from Donaldson Brothers' studio, let us appreciate how it encapsulates both the splendor of nature's gifts and the ingenuity behind advertising campaigns during America's industrial boom in the late 19th century.
