EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning lithograph titled "Yellow-Casque Black Hornbill, from the Birds of the Tropics series (N5) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands, 1889" captures the essence of a vibrant and exotic bird. The Yellow-Casque Black Hornbill, native to Hindoostan in India, is showcased in all its glory with intricate details and vivid colors. Perched on a branch against a tropical backdrop, this crested beauty stands out with its striking yellow casque and black plumage. Its profile reveals an elegant creature that exudes grace and majesty. The artist's skillful use of lithography brings out every feather and texture, making it come alive on paper. The close-up perspective allows us to appreciate the bird's unique features up close - from its turquoise-colored eyes to the delicate patterns on its wings. This trade card was originally produced by Allen & Ginter in the late 19th century as part of their cigarette brand promotion but has since become a treasured piece of art. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this lithotint print serves as a testament to both nature's wonders and human creativity. It reminds us of our fascination with wildlife and our desire to capture their beauty through various mediums like printing. As we admire this magnificent creature frozen in time through this heritage artwork, let it serve as a reminder of the diverse species that inhabit our planet. May it inspire us to cherish and protect these precious creatures for generations
