EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century lithograph, titled "Bighorn, from Quadrupeds series (N41) for Allen & Ginter Cigarettes, 1890" transports us back to the untamed wilderness of America. The image showcases a magnificent bighorn sheep standing proudly against a backdrop of majestic mountains. Its impressive curved horns command attention and symbolize strength and resilience. Created by Allen & Ginter as part of their Quadrupeds series, this lithograph is not just a commercial cigarette card but also an exquisite piece of natural history art. The detailed rendering captures the essence of this iconic American animal with precision and artistic flair. The bighorn sheep's habitat in the rugged United States landscape is beautifully depicted here, reminding us of the diverse geographical features that define our country. This print serves as a testament to both the beauty and scientific significance found in nature during the nineteenth century. Printed using lithography techniques, this commercial colour lithograph exhibits vibrant hues that bring life to every detail - from the texture on its woolly coat to each individual hair on its powerful legs. It stands as a testament to the skillful craftsmanship employed by artists at Allen & Ginter. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork today, we are transported back in time to witness America's rich wildlife heritage through stunning imagery. Let it serve as a reminder of our responsibility to preserve and protect these precious creatures for future generations.
