This chromolithograph, titled “Daisy (Chrysanthemum leucanthemum),” is part of a series of flower illustrations created by Goodwin & Company in 1890 for Old Judge Cigarettes. The print showcases a delicate daisy, rendered with meticulous detail and vibrant colors, capturing the flower’s beauty. The image was part of a series of trade cards used to promote the cigarette brand. The artwork is now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s collection in New York City. These trade cards were highly sought after by collectors and served as a form of early advertising.
