Description

A dark-haired young woman reaches into a lemon tree, smiling toward the viewer while cradling a bottle labelled Küenzlen’s; the bold red title bands frame the scene above and below. The German line “Alkoholfreier Citronensaft” translates as “non-alcoholic lemon juice,” positioning it as a temperance-friendly refreshment.

Küenzlen’s was promoted as a pure citrus beverage in early-20th-century Germany, when fruit-juice and cordial makers used aspirational, Mediterranean-styled imagery to suggest freshness and provenance.

Colour chromolithograph with soft modelling and high-gloss commercial finish; printed by H.C. Bestehorn, Aschersleben.
