EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1896 showcases a tea advertisement for Lipton Teas, highlighting the English Company's plantations in Ceylon. The image takes us back to the late Victorian era, where colonialism and the British Empire were at their peak. Against an idyllic rural backdrop in Sri Lanka, we witness an exterior view of a tea plantation owned by Lipton. The photograph captures the essence of turn-of-the-century farming as a farmer tends to his crops with utmost care and dedication. The lush greenery surrounding him is a testament to the fertile land that produces some of the finest teas in England. This picturesque scene transports us to a time when tea was not just a beverage but also symbolized sophistication and luxury. As we delve into this historical piece, it becomes evident that it represents more than just an advertisement. It serves as a window into England's imperialistic past and its influence on global trade during that era. The mention of Lipton Teas reminds us of Sir Thomas Lipton, who revolutionized the tea industry through his innovative marketing strategies. Through this remarkable visual narrative captured by Sarin Images from The Granger Collection, we are transported back in time to witness how colonial powers shaped industries across continents. This print encapsulates both beauty and history while inviting us to reflect on our present-day relationship with these cultural artifacts from another era.
