EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Laurita, cigar label" takes us back to the late 19th or early 20th century. The artwork showcases a stunning woman adorned with jewels and wearing a crown, exuding an air of regality. She holds a lit cigar in her hand, symbolizing sophistication and indulgence. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring out the beauty of both the subject and the tobacco brand it represents. The rich reds and golds create a sense of opulence and luxury, while also highlighting the allure of smoking during that era. The attention to detail is remarkable, particularly in capturing the intricate jewelry items worn by Laurita. Each piece shines with metallic gilding, adding another layer of elegance to her portrait. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this artwork offers us a glimpse into history - not only as an advertisement for cigars but also as a reflection of societal norms at that time. It serves as a reminder of how smoking was once considered fashionable and even glamorous for women. Preserved within private collections like Barbara Loe's Look and Learn collection, prints like these allow us to appreciate artistry from past centuries while contemplating their cultural significance. This particular piece invites viewers to explore themes such as beauty ideals, gender roles, advertising techniques, and historical context surrounding tobacco consumption.
