EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant 19th-century chromolithograph captures the Gustavus Adolphus Festival in Sweden, part of the iconic Holidays series by George S. Harris & Sons. The image showcases a grand celebration, with people dressed in traditional national costumes and an allegorical figure representing the spirit of the festival. The Gustavus Adolphus Festival was held annually to honor King Gustavus Adolphus, known as "Gustavus II Adolph" or "Gustavus II Adolphus" who was hailed as one of Sweden's greatest monarchs. His reign marked a significant period in Swedish history, characterized by military victories and cultural advancements. In this print, we see a colorful display of Swedish heritage and pride. The attention to detail is remarkable; every intricate pattern on the costumes is meticulously depicted using commercial color lithography techniques popular during that time. The artwork not only serves as a visual representation of the festival but also reflects America's fascination with European culture during the late 19th century. It was commissioned for Duke brand cigarettes by W. Duke Sons & Co. , showcasing their commitment to high-quality advertising materials. Today, this piece can be found at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met) in New York City, where it stands as a testament to both artistic excellence and historical significance. It reminds us of our shared human experiences across different cultures and eras while celebrating the beauty and diversity within them.
