EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful and humorous scene from the Victorian era, depicted on this charming antique Christmas and New Year card. Five small frogs, dressed in holiday attire, gather around their friend who finds himself in a precarious position, with the beak of a large, menacing duck clamped firmly on him. The scene unfolds by the edge of a tranquil river, surrounded by lush green grass, reeds, and rushes. The frogs, showing remarkable determination and camaraderie, pull together to rescue their friend from the duck's grasp. The anthropomorphic element adds a touch of comic relief and whimsy to the image, making it a delightful addition to any holiday greeting. This heartwarming scene of survival and friendship is a testament to the enduring spirit of the natural world, even in the most unexpected circumstances. The frogs' humanized expressions and the contrast between their small size and the large duck create a captivating and endearing image that transcends time, bringing joy and laughter to the recipient of this beautiful card.
