EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, where we find ourselves immersed in a fascinating piece of history. The photo captures an advertisement for the German Lottery, featured in the 1880 edition of the Spanish publication Revista Popular De Conocimientos Utiles. The intricate drawings and engravings showcased in this square-shaped print are truly remarkable. Each illustration tells a story, enticing viewers with its detailed depictions of excitement and anticipation surrounding gambling and lottery games. The use of black and white adds a touch of nostalgia, transporting us to a bygone era. As we delve into this snapshot from Spain's past, it becomes evident that language knows no boundaries when it comes to advertising. Despite being published in Spanish, this advertisement promotes Germany's lottery system – bridging cultures through the universal appeal of chance and fortune. The mention of "reales" reminds us that even though times have changed since then, gambling has always been intertwined with dreams of wealth and prosperity. This ad serves as a reminder that throughout history people have sought out opportunities to change their lives through luck. Ken Welsh's masterful capture allows us to appreciate not only the artistry behind these prints but also offers insight into how lotteries were promoted during that time period. It is through such historical artifacts that we gain valuable glimpses into societies long gone while marveling at their similarities to our own world today
