EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Horace Greeley, a prominent figure in 19th-century America. The image is part of the Great Americans series commissioned by Duke brand cigarettes in 1888. In this color lithograph, Greeley's portrait exudes authority and wisdom as he gazes confidently into the distance. Horace Greeley was an influential American politician and newspaper editor, best known for his role as the founder and editor of the New York Tribune. As a reformer and advocate for social change, Greeley played a significant role in shaping political discourse during his time. The artist behind this chromolithograph remains unknown, but their skillful use of color brings out every detail of Greeley's face and attire. The vibrant hues enhance the overall impact of the image, making it visually striking. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this cigarette card has become a collectible piece that represents both American history and advertising culture from that era. It serves as a reminder of how art can be used to promote products while immortalizing important figures like Horace Greeley. As we admire this photograph today, we are transported back to a time when smoking was not only socially acceptable but also associated with sophistication. This historical artifact allows us to appreciate both its artistic value and its significance within American politics and society during the late 19th century.
