EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print showcases the iconic Benjamin Franklin, a prominent figure in American history. The image portrays Franklin as a young man, with an apron draped over his clothes, suggesting his involvement in trade or craftsmanship. As a founding father and statesman of the United States, Franklin played a crucial role in shaping the nation's history. The composition of the print is rich with symbolism. In the background, we see a ship sailing on the sea, representing Franklin's travels across Europe as an ambassador for the United States. Through the window behind him, we catch a glimpse of St Denis, where this trade card was likely distributed during the late 19th century. Franklin's portrait exudes intelligence and curiosity - traits that defined him as both an inventor and scientist. His contributions to society include inventions such as bifocals and lightning rods, making him one of America's most celebrated inventors. This chromolitho print not only captures Benjamin Franklin's likeness but also provides us with insight into his multifaceted persona. It serves as a reminder of his significant impact on American Enlightenment and European culture alike. This historical artifact offers viewers an opportunity to delve into America's past while appreciating its connection to France and Europe more broadly.
