EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Schuetzenfest, Switzerland" takes us back to the 19th century and invites us to immerse ourselves in the vibrant atmosphere of a Swiss holiday celebration. This stunning chromolithograph, part of the Holidays series by George S. Harris & Sons, showcases the rich cultural heritage and national costume of Switzerland. In this image, we see a group of people dressed in traditional Swiss attire gathered for Schuetzenfest, a festival that combines marksmanship competitions with joyful festivities. The men proudly display their guns as they participate in shooting contests while women elegantly don their colorful national dresses. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this lithograph - from the intricate patterns on clothing to the picturesque location that serves as a backdrop. The use of vivid colors brings life and energy to this collectible cigarette card. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot captured over a century ago, it reminds us not only of our fascination with different cultures but also highlights how art can transcend time and connect us with moments long gone. Through this print, we are transported into an era where traditions were cherished and celebrated amidst breathtaking landscapes. This remarkable piece from George S. Harris & Sons now finds its place among other treasures at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, allowing visitors to appreciate its beauty and significance within American history.
