EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant color lithograph captures the renowned American author Nathaniel Hawthorne in all his literary glory. Taken from the series Great Americans (N76) for Duke brand cigarettes, this print showcases a man who has left an indelible mark on American literature. Hawthorne, known for his masterpieces such as "The Scarlet Letter" and "The House of the Seven Gables" is depicted here with an air of intellectual sophistication. His piercing gaze and thoughtful expression hint at the depth of his literary genius. The chromolithograph's rich colors bring out every detail, from Hawthorne's distinguished features to the intricate patterns adorning his clothing. The background features Hilda's Tower, adding a touch of elegance and grandeur to the composition. Displayed prominently in The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this collectible cigarette card pays homage to one of America's greatest writers. It serves as a reminder not only of Hawthorne's significant contributions to literature but also of the cultural impact that smoking had during that era. As we admire this portrait today, let us appreciate both the artistic craftsmanship behind it and its historical significance. This image transports us back to 19th-century America when men like Nathaniel Hawthorne shaped our nation's literary landscape.
