The Tree of Temperance, 1872

The same orchard, repainted in brighter fruit.

What

A hand-coloured lithograph of 1872 on the design of the earlier Tree of Temperance, held by the Library of Congress.

Why

Twenty three years on, the sermon still sold, and the publisher redrew it with red and yellow fruit.

Notice

Set it beside the 1849 sheet: the church, the plough and the family have moved, and the fruit has turned from pink to red.

“The same print, sold to the next twenty three years of parlours.”
