EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant color lithograph from the late 19th century showcases a portrait of Ulysses S. Grant, one of America's most prominent political figures and military leaders. The image is part of the Great Americans series created for Duke brand cigarettes in 1888. Grant, known for his role as a general during the American Civil War and later serving as the 18th President of the United States, is depicted wearing a laurel wreath on his head, symbolizing victory and honor. His stern yet determined expression reflects his strong leadership qualities. The chromolithograph captures Grant's likeness with remarkable detail and vivid colors that bring him to life. This collectible cigarette card was produced by W. Duke Sons & Co. , adding to its historical significance. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this print serves as a reminder of Grant's influential presence in American history. It portrays him not only as a military hero but also as an esteemed statesman who played a crucial role in shaping the nation during challenging times. As we admire this artwork today, it offers us an opportunity to reflect on Grant's legacy and contributions to our country while appreciating the artistic craftsmanship behind this stunning lithograph.
