EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant lithograph print titled "Navaja Knife, South America" is part of the Arms of All Nations series (N3) produced by Allen & Ginter Cigarettes Brands in 1887. The image showcases a traditional weapon from Spain known as the Navaja knife, which was widely used in South America during the 19th century. The lithotint technique employed for this print brings out an array of colors and details, making it a visually captivating piece. The man depicted in the image dons traditional clothing and a hat that reflects his cultural heritage. His intense gaze and firm grip on the switchblade convey a sense of strength and readiness for warfare. This cigarette card offers us a glimpse into history, highlighting both the diversity of weapons used across different countries and their significance within various cultures. It serves as a reminder of how arms have played an integral role throughout human civilization. Preserved at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this artwork represents not only Allen & Ginter's commitment to producing high-quality prints but also their interest in documenting global traditions through visual storytelling. By appreciating such historical artifacts, we gain insight into our shared past while celebrating diverse customs from around the world.
