EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant lithograph print showcases the Pontifical States, a significant symbol of Catholicism and religious heritage. From the renowned Flags of All Nations series by Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands in 1887, this 19th-century artwork captures the essence of patriotism and national identity. The image prominently features the national flag of Vatican City, representing the Roman Catholic Church's spiritual authority. The keys of heaven, an emblematic reference to Saint Peter as depicted in Christian tradition, further emphasize the significance of this religious state. Saint Peter, also known as Simon Peter or Simon Cephas, was one of Jesus Christ's apostles and is considered the first Pope. With meticulous attention to detail and rich colors, this lithograph exudes Victorian charm while commemorating American history. It serves as a testament to both faith and nationalism during that era. As a cigarette card produced for non-commercial purposes by Allen & Ginter, it offers viewers a glimpse into different cultures and nations through its diverse collection. This particular print encapsulates not only religious devotion but also highlights how flags can be powerful symbols that unite people under shared beliefs. Whether appreciated for its artistic value or historical significance, this image invites contemplation on religion's role in shaping societies throughout time.
