Chromolithographs on paper
Image: 7-1/4 x 16 inches (18.4 x 40.6 cm)
A rare collection, this complete set of all five original Anheuser-Busch chromolithographs were issued in 1912 as part of the brewery's advertising campaign. The brewery commissioned well-known artists Berninghaus and Wimar to create the original paintings in 1910, although Wimar produced only one (Father of Waters). All five works reflect the mythic west as it was romanticized in a nineteenth-century context. This series continued the brewery's tradition of utilizing great moments from American history to inspire the public's thirst. Kegs and crates marked with the Anheuser-Busch logo are prominently tucked in each image, creating the impression that the great men who tamed the wild west were fueled by beer.
