"White Rose (Rose, Madame Plantier)" is a chromolithograph from the "Flowers" series produced by Goodwin & Company for Old Judge Cigarettes in 1890. The artwork depicts a single white rose, known as the "Madame Plantier" variety, in intricate detail against a warm, orange-brown background. This series of cigarette cards, popular in the late 19th century, were often collected and traded by enthusiasts, adding to their cultural significance. The realistic depiction of the flower showcases the artistry of chromolithography, a printing technique that uses multiple lithographic stones to create vibrant colors.
