This 1930s advertisement for Victory Cigarettes melds the meticulous detail of traditional Chinese painting with the craft of color lithography—and a side of risqué. Posters like this one, influenced by the Art Deco movement in the West, recall the economic boom of early 20th century Shanghai, an international center of business and trade. Today, lithograph tobacco posters like this are prized by collectors and preserved in museum collections both for their artistry and for the unique glimpse they give of the past. Unframed.

Elizabeth Krueger | Elizabeth Krueger Design

“PAGODA RED was extremely supportive in helping to pull accessory options together for the Lake Forest Showhouse. After providing them with details and our vision on how we were looking to finish our space, Laurene helped curate options that made it easy for us to edit and finalize. It's also no surprise that the unique pieces we used in our showhouse space were some of the first to sell.”
