EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Wine, 1899" takes us back to the enchanting era of the late 19th century. Created by an anonymous European School artist, this color lithograph is part of a series of illustrations commissioned by Liebig for their promotional trade cards featuring various drinks. In this particular image, we are transported to a bustling vineyard during harvest season. The scene showcases the laborious process of wine production with workers diligently tending to rows upon rows of grapevines. A couple dressed in Belle Époque attire can be seen enjoying a momentary break at a table adorned with barrels and bottles. The artwork not only serves as an advertisement for Liebig's meat extract or bouillon but also captures the essence and allure surrounding wine culture in Europe at that time. The art nouveau style adds an elegant touch to the composition, emphasizing both the beauty and sophistication associated with fine wines. As we gaze upon this vintage trade card turned work of art, it reminds us how integral wine was in European homes during that period. It also highlights its significance during World War II when Liebig's meat extract became widely used as a staple food item. With its rich historical context and exquisite aesthetic appeal, "Wine, 1899" transports us into a world where craftsmanship meets indulgence – inviting us to savor not only the flavors captured within each bottle but also appreciate the timeless allure of viniculture itself.
