EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Cigarette Case created by the renowned jeweler Carl Faberge in Moscow, between 1896 and 1900. The exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in this remarkable piece of applied arts from the late 19th century. The cigarette case features an enchanting floral pattern, delicately adorned with silver gilt and enamel. Its intricate design reflects Faberge's mastery in combining elegance with functionality. This luxurious accessory was not only used for storing cigarettes but also served as a symbol of sophistication and style during that era. Carl Faberge, known for his exceptional creations, was the founder of House of Faberge—a name synonymous with opulence and fine craftsmanship. His work gained international recognition, attracting clients from various countries including Russia itself. This photograph captures the essence of Russian heritage art, showcasing one of Faberge's masterpieces amidst a backdrop of Moscow's rich cultural history. It serves as a testament to the artist's skillful handiwork and his contribution to the world of jewelry making. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this print allows us to appreciate both the artistic value and historical significance behind this cigarette case. As we admire its beauty through time captured by Keystone Archives lens, we can't help but marvel at how such an object transcends its utilitarian purpose to become an emblematic representation of luxury and refinement in turn-of-the-century Russia.
