EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print, titled "Malta, from Flags of All Nations, Series 2 (N10) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands" transports us back to the vibrant era of the late 19th century. Created in 1890 by Allen & Ginter, a renowned American tobacco company, this artwork showcases their dedication to producing exquisite cigarette cards. The image captures the essence of Malta's rich heritage and national pride. The Maltese flag takes center stage with its striking red and white colors proudly displayed against a backdrop of blue sky. The iconic Maltese cross adorns the flag as a symbol of courage and chivalry associated with the Order of Knights Hospitaller. Intricately detailed, this lithograph highlights every element that defines Malta's identity - from its historic connection to the Knights of St John to its unwavering patriotism. The knight depicted on horseback represents valor and honor while standing beneath an elegant banner bearing the country's name. Printed using commercial color lithography techniques popular during that time period, this piece exemplifies Victorian-era craftsmanship at its finest. Its vibrant hues and meticulous attention to detail make it a true testament to artistry in printing. As we admire this remarkable work today, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also recognize how it serves as a window into history – reminding us of our shared cultural legacies and inspiring feelings of national pride across generations.
