EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and intricate chromolitho print titled "Allegro" takes us back to the late 19th or early 20th century, showcasing a captivating blend of artistry and advertising. The image captures a picturesque countryside scene with lush green pastures and towering trees, evoking a sense of tranquility and natural beauty. In the foreground, we see a cherubic child dressed in a charming pink gown, holding a flute delicately to her lips. She is surrounded by elements that symbolize music and song, such as the lute resting against the tree trunk beside her. This harmonious composition suggests an enchanting melody filling the air. However, amidst this idyllic setting lies an unexpected twist - nestled among the flowers at the child's feet is an open cigar packet. This juxtaposition hints at society's complex relationship with smoking during this era. The rich colors used in this lithograph add depth and vibrancy to every detail, from the intricate botanical illustrations on the cigar label itself to the child's rosy cheeks. It is evident that great care was taken in creating this artwork. Overall, "Allegro" offers us not only an exquisite visual experience but also invites contemplation on themes of music, nature, history, advertising practices of yesteryears – all encapsulated within one captivating print from Bridgeman Images' private collection.
