EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming Christmas postcard from around 1912 captures the essence of a traditional English hunt scene, beautifully illustrated by the talented artist Cecil Aldin. The image depicts a huntsman on his horse, pausing for a moment to enjoy a mug of ale in the crisp winter air.
Cecil Aldin's distinctive style and attention to detail bring this scene to life, with every brushstroke conveying the excitement and camaraderie of the hunt. The rich colors and dynamic composition draw you into the world of early 20th-century England, where hunting was not just a sport but a way of life.
Published by Ernest Nister, this postcard is a true work of art that celebrates both the holiday season and the timeless tradition of fox hunting. It evokes nostalgia for simpler times when people gathered together to celebrate Christmas in their own unique ways.
Whether you are an admirer of Cecil Aldin's work or simply appreciate vintage illustrations, this postcard is sure to bring joy and warmth to your home during the holiday season.
