EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph from 1919 depicts a scene of opulence and privilege in a bygone era. In this vintage illustration, we are transported to a finely-appointed mansion where a wealthy woman is being served breakfast by her devoted servant. The attention to detail in the artwork showcases the grandeur of the setting, with its art deco-inspired interior design and lavish furnishings. The contrast between the two figures is striking - the elegant lady exudes wealth and refinement, while her African American server stands dutifully by her side, dressed impeccably in uniform. This portrayal offers us a glimpse into societal dynamics of that time. As our eyes wander through the composition, we notice an array of elements that further emphasize luxury: plump grapes resting on an exquisite table adorned with tulips, a letter awaiting attention, and delicate tea cups ready for consumption. It is evident that no expense has been spared to create this indulgent morning ritual. This lithograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of social disparities during early 20th-century America. It invites contemplation about wealth distribution and power dynamics within society. With its impeccable craftsmanship and historical significance, this print transports us back to an era when breakfasts were elaborate affairs reserved for those fortunate enough to belong to the upper echelons of society.
