EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph poster from 1899 showcases the iconic characters of Uncle Tom and Eva from Harriet Beecher Stowe's renowned novel, "Uncle Tom's Cabin". The late 19th-century print serves as an advertisement for a theatrical production of the book, highlighting its enduring literary and cultural significance. The contrasting figures of Uncle Tom, an African American man representing the struggles faced by enslaved individuals in America's South, and Eva, a young girl symbolizing innocence and compassion, are central to this striking composition. Their presence on the poster evokes both the emotional depth of Stowe's narrative and the power of live theater to bring these characters to life. With meticulous detail and vibrant colors characteristic of lithography at that time, this print captures the essence of turn-of-the-century entertainment advertising. It transports viewers back to a time when theater was a popular form of amusement and storytelling. As we gaze upon this historical artifact today, it serves as a reminder not only of Stowe's influential work but also how art has long been used as a medium for promoting social awareness. This particular lithograph poster is part of The Granger Collection in New York—a treasure trove preserving valuable pieces like this one that provide glimpses into our past.
