EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Linden, from The Worlds Racers series (N32) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes, 1888" takes us back to the vibrant world of horse racing in 19th century America. This stunning lithograph, created by Allen & Ginter, a renowned tobacco company of that era, showcases their commitment to artistry and capturing the essence of American heritage. In this image, we are transported to a thrilling moment on the racecourse as Linden, a magnificent racehorse with its jockey atop, gallops towards victory. The vivid colors and meticulous detailing bring forth the energy and excitement that surrounded these equestrian events during Victorian times. As an emblematic representation of sportsmanship and athleticism in the United States at that time, this photograph print holds immense historical significance. It not only celebrates the passion for horse racing but also reflects upon America's love affair with sports and competition. Preserved within The Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection - known as The Met - this artwork serves as a visual testament to our country's rich sporting traditions. Beyond being just an animal or sport-themed piece, it encapsulates an entire era when horse races were highly regarded social gatherings where people from all walks of life united in their shared enthusiasm. This remarkable print allows us to appreciate both the artistic prowess behind its creation and its cultural importance as part of American history.
