The Buffords Sons Lith. Co. was a prominent American lithography firm based in Boston, operating with influence throughout the 19th century. Founded by John Henry Bufford, a key figure in the development of American lithography, the company was known for its high-quality prints, illustrations, and posters. Their work often included vibrant and detailed images that catered to a wide range of commercial and artistic needs, capturing the cultural and social nuances of American life during that era. Their contribution to the lithographic arts is notable for both technical innovation and the popularization of artistic prints.
"Miss Shell and Mr. Lemon" features anthropomorphic representations of an oyster shell and a lemon in a playful, possibly romantic interaction. Miss Shell is elegantly and delicately detailed while Mr. Lemon is depicted with a zestful and bright appearance, enhancing his citrus character.
