EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of Egyptian postage stamps from 1897, beautifully rendered in vibrant colors through the technique of lithography. Created by an unknown European artist, these stamps were part of a series produced for Liebig as promotional trade cards. Liebig was renowned for their meat extract, manufactured in Uruguay by Fray Bentos and widely consumed across Europe during the late 19th century and even throughout World War II. The image itself is a delightful blend of historical significance and artistic charm. It features a picturesque scene along the Nile River, with traditional Egyptian boats gracefully gliding on its waters. A young girl dressed in traditional attire stands proudly amidst this enchanting backdrop dominated by iconic pyramids and the majestic Sphinx. This vintage card serves not only as an advertisement but also as a window into Egypt's rich cultural heritage. The intricate details captured within each stamp transport us to another time, inviting us to explore the wonders of ancient Egypt through this small yet significant piece of art. Brought to you by Bridgeman Images, this remarkable print offers both history enthusiasts and art lovers alike an opportunity to appreciate the beauty found within everyday objects like postage stamps while immersing themselves in the timeless allure of Egypt's past.
