EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and charming Victorian greeting card captures the essence of good luck with its depiction of a horseshoe and pansies. Created in the late 19th century, this colour lithograph print showcases the intricate details and delicate hues that were characteristic of English School artwork during this era. The horseshoe, long considered a symbol of good fortune, takes center stage in this composition. Its elegant curves are adorned with beautifully rendered pansies, adding a touch of natural beauty to the design. Pansies themselves have been associated with thoughts of love and affection, making them an ideal addition to this well-wishing card. The verse accompanying the image further enhances its message: "A Victorian good luck greeting card". This simple yet heartfelt sentiment encapsulates the intention behind such cards - to convey wishes for prosperity and success to their recipients. Preserved within a private collection, this photograph by eDavid Pearson allows us to appreciate not only the artistic qualities but also the historical significance of this piece. As we gaze upon it today, we are transported back in time to an era when handwritten greetings held great importance. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with access to a captivating work from their vast collection. Through their dedication to preserving fine art prints like these, they allow us all to experience moments from history through visual storytelling.
