EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Clapper Rail, from the Game Birds series (N40) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes, 1888-90" takes us back to the late 19th century in America. Created by Allen & Ginter, a renowned company of that era, this lithograph showcases the beauty and essence of one of nature's remarkable creatures. The Clapper Rail is elegantly portrayed in this artwork, highlighting its intricate details and vibrant colors. This bird species was highly regarded as a game bird during that time, making it an ideal subject for collectors and enthusiasts alike. The lithotint technique used in printing adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its visual appeal. As we gaze upon this piece of natural history preserved through lithography, we are transported to a time when hunting these majestic birds was not only a popular sport but also deeply ingrained in American culture. It serves as a reminder of our country's rich wildlife heritage and the importance placed on understanding and appreciating nature. While originally intended for commercial use by Allen & Ginter Cigarettes, this photograph now stands as an artistic representation rather than an advertisement. It allows us to delve into the world of science and exploration prevalent during the 19th century United States. Through this print from Heritage Images collection, we can admire both the artistry involved in creating such exquisite prints as well as gain insight into America's historical connection with wildlife preservation.
