EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases three Guinness trays made of tin, capturing the essence of 20th-century advertising and kitchenware. The close-up shot highlights the intricate metalwork and lettering on the trays, which serve as a powerful medium for communication and publicity. Placed against a vibrant blue background, these objects stand out with their bold representation of the iconic Guinness brand. The absence of any person in the frame allows us to focus solely on these media containers that once played a significant role in promoting this beloved beverage. Each tray features English text, including lowercase and capital letters, emphasizing its language-based appeal. The number 5 is also prominently displayed, adding an intriguing element to this composition. An animal likeness takes center stage on one of the trays—a toucan—symbolizing both the exotic nature of Guinness's origins and its association with birds throughout its history. This small group of objects exudes nostalgia for a bygone era when such household equipment was not only functional but also served as decorative pieces. Captured within a studio setting, this photograph beautifully captures the essence of drinking culture intertwined with visual artistry. It serves as a testament to how even everyday items like these Guinness trays can become works worthy of admiration in their own right.
