EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Gold Coin series (N284) showcases Otto Schomberg, a renowned baseball player of the 19th century. Standing confidently at first base in Indianapolis, Indiana, Schomberg exudes strength and determination. The lithograph beautifully captures his athletic prowess and sportswear of that era. Commissioned by D Buchner & Co for their Gold Coin Chewing Tobacco trade card in 1887, this color lithotint is a testament to America's love affair with both baseball and tobacco during this time period. The vibrant colors bring life to the image, highlighting every detail of Schomberg's portrait. Schomberg's legs apart stance signifies his readiness to defend his position on the field while also showcasing his strong physique. His intense gaze suggests unwavering focus as he awaits an incoming play. This photograph immortalizes him as a true sportsman and symbolizes the spirit of American athletics. Preserved in The Met museum collection today, this piece serves as a reminder of our country's rich sporting heritage. It offers us a glimpse into an era when baseball was rapidly gaining popularity across the nation. As we admire this remarkable lithograph, let us appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance in capturing Otto Schomberg's contribution to American sports culture during the late 19th century.
