EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with these enchanting Father Christmas images from the late 1890s, captured on four beautiful medieval-style Christmas cards. In the first card, Father Christmas is playfully snowballing with a group of delighted children, their rosy cheeks and bundled-up clothing a testament to the wintery season. The jolly old man, with his flowing white beard and red robe, brings joy and merriment to these little friends. The second card depicts a weary Father Christmas, leaning against a mantelpiece after an evening of celebrations with a warm and welcoming family. The room is filled with the scent of pine and cinnamon, and the sound of laughter and music. The third card presents a medieval servant, proudly announcing to his master that the Christmas goose has been successfully prepared for the upcoming feast. The richly decorated hall and the gleaming silverware hint at the grandeur of the occasion. Lastly, in the fourth card, people of all ages gather around to participate in Yuletide games, their faces reflecting the spirit of camaraderie and fun. The warm glow of the fireplace and the twinkling candles create a cozy and inviting atmosphere. These captivating cards, with their intricate details and vibrant colors, transport us to a time when Christmas was a cherished tradition, filled with love, laughter, and togetherness. Experience the magic of the season as it was celebrated in the late 1890s.
