"Edna Wallace Hopper" is a 1900 lithograph by Frederick Moladore Spiegle, part of a series of promotional cards for Turkish Trophies cigarettes. The image depicts Edna Wallace Hopper, a popular actress and singer of the era, in a glamorous pose, dressed in a frilly pink gown. The artwork is a fine example of the popular "Gibson Girl" style, with its idealized portraiture of a stylish woman, and the soft colors and romantic setting. The card is now part of the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
