EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Advertisement (litho)" transports us back to the 19th century when advertising was an art form in itself. The print, part of a private collection, showcases an illustration created for the Orient Line Guide edited by W J Loftie in 1889. In this vibrant image, we see a bustling city street with tourists and locals alike captivated by an enormous globe representing the world. This advertisement aims to promote international travel and tourism through the Orient Line company. It highlights various routes available for adventurous souls seeking new horizons. The scene is filled with eye-catching details - from elegantly dressed hatters on Sackville Street to iconic landmarks like Piccadilly Circus and Lincoln's Inn Fields. The artist skillfully captures the energy and excitement surrounding global exploration during that era. Commissioned by Bennett & Co. , a renowned advertising company of its time, this artwork stands as a testament to their innovative approach towards promoting businesses. Through meticulous engraving techniques, they brought life to advertisements that were not only informative but also visually stunning. As we gaze upon this historic lithograph today, it serves as a reminder of how far advertising has come while evoking nostalgia for simpler times when printed ads held immense power in shaping our desires and dreams.
