EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming Victorian die-cut three-dimensional Christmas card captures the joy and playfulness of the holiday season. In this delightful scene, a mischievous young boy is depicted just moments before launching a snowball at a curious cat peering over a wall. The vibrant colors of this color lithograph, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, bring to life the festive atmosphere. The boy's rosy cheeks and bundled-up figure suggest that it is winter, while his scarf flutters in anticipation of his impending throw. A ladder leans against the wall behind him, hinting at further adventures awaiting him beyond our view. Doves gracefully fly above, adding an element of celebration and symbolizing peace during this special time. This intricate three-dimensional design adds depth and dimension to the traditional greeting card format. It invites viewers into a whimsical world where children embrace the magic of Christmas with innocent mischief and laughter. Preserved within a private collection, this treasured piece offers us a glimpse into Victorian-era celebrations and reminds us of timeless traditions passed down through generations. As we admire this nostalgic artwork captured by eDavid Pearson's lens for Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back in time to experience the festive spirit that has long been associated with Christmas festivities.
