Christmas Morning in the Colonies - A Festive Celebration Across Continents
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving by Richard Caton Woodville II takes us back to a time when Christmas morning was celebrated with joy and merriment in the colonies of Australia and Canada. The scene is filled with warmth and excitement as families gather around campfires, their faces illuminated by the flickering flames. In Australia, amidst the vast landscapes, settlers have come together to create a festive atmosphere despite the scorching heat. Children eagerly unwrap presents under palm trees adorned with makeshift decorations, while adults exchange gifts and share laughter over a hearty Christmas feast. Meanwhile, in snowy Canada, where winter blankets everything in white, Canadians embrace the holiday spirit with equal enthusiasm. Families huddle close for warmth as they open beautifully wrapped packages beneath towering evergreen trees dusted with snowflakes. The air is filled with anticipation as children marvel at their new toys while sipping hot cocoa. Woodville's intricate details transport us to these distant lands during simpler times when communities found solace and unity through shared traditions. This enchanting print captures not only the diversity of cultures but also highlights how Christmas transcends borders, bringing people together regardless of geographical location or climate. As we gaze upon this historical artwork from 1890, let it serve as a reminder that no matter where we find ourselves on this planet – whether basking under an Australian sun or shivering in Canadian cold – love and celebration are universal languages spoken on every Christmas morning across
