EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century lithograph titled "Brazil, 1000 Reis, from the series Coins of All Nations" showcases a vibrant and detailed representation of Brazilian culture. Created as a promotional print for Duke brand cigarettes by W. Duke Sons & Co in 1889, this artwork captures the essence of Brazil's rich heritage. The chromolithograph features a full-length portrait of an unidentified man holding a cigarette while standing amidst coffee beans and coins. The black caricature adds depth to the composition, highlighting the significance of currency and finance in Brazil during that era. The image not only serves as an advertisement but also provides insight into the country's economic landscape at the time. It symbolizes Brazil's association with coffee production, one of its major exports, which played a crucial role in shaping its economy. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met) today, this collectible cigarette card offers viewers a glimpse into American commercial art history. Its vivid colors and meticulous detailing make it visually striking and evoke curiosity about both Brazilian society and early advertising techniques. As we admire this remarkable piece from over a century ago, let us appreciate how it encapsulates multiple facets: money, smoking culture, trade relations between nations like Brazil and America – all within one frame.
