EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in England's past - the first pipe smoked in the country. Created by renowned artist John Hassall, this colourful lithograph transports us back to a time when smoking was a novelty and tobacco was just beginning to make its mark on English society. The image depicts Queen Elizabeth I herself, known as Good Queen Bess, enjoying this newfound pleasure in her lush garden. Surrounded by vibrant flowers and foliage, she holds a bucket filled with burning tobacco leaves while delicately puffing on her pipe. The smoke gracefully swirls around her regal figure, adding an air of mystique to the scene. It is said that Sir Walter Raleigh introduced tobacco to England during his travels abroad, making him not only a military man but also an influential writer and poet. This artwork pays homage to his contribution as well as other notable writers and authors of the time who were captivated by this new substance. As we gaze upon this exquisite print from our private collection, we are reminded of the power of exploration and discovery. It serves as a testament to how one small act can have far-reaching consequences for an entire nation's culture and customs.
