"Wood Thrush" is a chromolithograph print from the "Birds of America" series created by Allen & Ginter in 1888. It depicts a vibrantly colored Wood Thrush perched on a branch, surrounded by blooming flowers and foliage. This small, detailed print, intended as a collectible trading card, is characteristic of the naturalist-inspired artwork popular in the late 19th century. The card's original purpose was to promote Allen & Ginter's cigarette brands, adding an intriguing layer of social history to this visually appealing piece of art.
