"Notice to smokers and chewers" is a notable lithograph created by Nathaniel Currier, an influential figure in American printmaking during the 19th century. Nathaniel Currier, born in 1813, was a pioneering lithographer who, along with his business partner James Merritt Ives, founded the prolific firm Currier & Ives. This firm became renowned for producing a wide array of affordable and widely distributed prints that depicted various aspects of American life, including landscapes, historical events, and social commentary.

The lithograph "Notice to smokers and chewers" is a prime example of Currier's work that combines humor with social observation. The piece humorously addresses the habits of smoking and chewing tobacco, which were common practices in the 19th century. Through this work, Currier captures the societal attitudes and norms surrounding tobacco use during that era, providing a glimpse into the everyday life and cultural practices of the time.

Currier's lithographs were known for their accessibility and appeal to the general public. They were often sold inexpensively, making art more available to a broader audience. The prints from Currier & Ives, including "Notice to smokers and chewers," were characterized by their detailed and vibrant imagery, which was achieved through the lithographic process. This process involved creating images on limestone or metal plates with a greasy substance, then using these plates to print the images onto paper.

"Notice to smokers and chewers" reflects Currier's ability to blend artistic skill with keen social insight, making it a valuable piece for understanding both the history of American printmaking and the cultural context of the 19th century. The work remains a testament to Currier's legacy as a significant figure in the democratization of art in America.
