This chromolithograph, part of the "Races of Mankind" series issued by Abdul Cigarettes, depicts a woman from Greenland. The image is a close-up portrait, showcasing traditional clothing and hairstyles of the Inuit people. The woman's fur-trimmed garment and unique headwear are a central focus, along with the subtle background detail of stylized floral elements. These trade cards, popular in the late 19th century, aimed to educate consumers about different cultures and demonstrate the global reach of Abdul Cigarettes.
