Amelia Brigham in A Modern Magdalen, from the Actresses series (T1), distributed by the American Tobacco Co. to promote Turkish Trophies Cigarettes 1900

This 1900 lithograph by Frederick Moladore Spiegle depicts Amelia Brigham, an actress, as a "Modern Magdalen" in profile. The image, part of a series promoting Turkish Trophies cigarettes, uses soft, watercolor-like tones and delicate lines to present Brigham in a romanticized, almost ethereal light. The artwork, now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, showcases the trend of using popular culture figures in advertising during the early 20th century.
