EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and detailed chromolithograph captures a snapshot of Korea in the late 19th century. Part of the series "Coins of All Nations" commissioned by Duke brand cigarettes, this print showcases the rich cultural heritage and diversity of the country. In the foreground, a well-dressed Korean man stands tall, holding a parasol to shield himself from the sun's rays. His traditional clothing reflects his national identity and adds a touch of elegance to his figure. The artist has paid meticulous attention to detail, capturing every fold and intricate pattern on his attire. Behind him, we catch glimpses of other people going about their daily lives in this bustling location. The scene is filled with color and movement as men smoke cigarettes, adding an air of sophistication to their presence. The inclusion of coins scattered around serves as a reminder that finance plays an integral role in any society. These coins represent not only currency but also symbolize trade relations between nations. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this lithograph offers viewers a window into Korea's past during an era when it was still relatively unknown to many Americans. It invites us to appreciate both its historical significance and artistic beauty while acknowledging its place within Duke Sons & Co. 's advertising campaign for cigarette cards.
