EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant color lithograph, titled "Jews Harp, from the Musical Instruments series (N82) for Duke brand cigarettes" captures a captivating moment in 19th-century America. Created by Schumacher & Ettlinger in 1888, this chromolithograph showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of cigarette card artistry. The image features a woman passionately playing the Jews Harp, also known as a mouth harp or Jew's Trump. With her eyes closed and fingers delicately plucking at the instrument's metal reed, she is completely immersed in its enchanting melody. The artist skillfully portrays her devotion to music through intricate details and vivid colors that bring life to this collectible piece. This artwork was part of a series commissioned by W. Duke Sons & Co. , one of America's leading tobacco manufacturers during that era. Although it originated as an advertisement for their brand of cigarettes, it has since become an iconic representation of Victorian musical instruments. Now housed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, this lithograph serves as a testament to both artistic excellence and cultural heritage. It offers us a glimpse into the rich history of American arts while celebrating the passion and talent displayed by musicians throughout time. As we admire this stunning portrayal of musical expression, let us appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also its significance within our shared human experience.
