EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming Victorian Christmas card, we are transported back to the festive holiday season of the 19th century. The image depicts two adorable kittens wearing dunce caps, adding a touch of whimsy and anthropomorphic delight to the scene. The color lithograph showcases intricate details and vibrant hues that bring life to the playful felines. Their mischievous expressions hint at their involvement in some sort of holiday mischief, perhaps getting into trouble while exploring the decorations or unwrapping presents. The inclusion of dunce caps adds an element of humor and lightheartedness to the composition, suggesting that even our furry friends can sometimes find themselves in silly situations during this joyous time of year. Accompanying the delightful illustration is a ribbon adorned with a verse or rhyme, possibly conveying warm wishes for a merry Christmas and a happy New Year. This poetic addition further enhances the sentimentality and charm associated with Victorian-era greeting cards. This print from Bridgeman Images captures not only the essence of celebration but also serves as a reminder that even amidst all the hustle and bustle, it's important to embrace moments of playfulness and laughter during this festive season.
