Summary: Cigarette Card

Key dates:

Liebeg, a food company based in Antwerp began issuing cards in 1870 which tried to pick up themes from different European countries. This cigarette card, released in 1908, depicts a romanticised view of potato gathering in Ireland. It marks a sharp contrast to the Evicted painting.
