EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of this late Victorian postcard, circa 1890s, and witness the whimsical antics of a delightful family of pigs as they engage in a sunny afternoon of play and enjoyment. The scene is set amidst a lush, green meadow, dotted with wildflowers and the warm, golden hues of summer. The father pig, with a twinkle in his beady eyes and a broad, satisfied grin, skillfully maneuvers a hoop around a tree trunk, while his wife, her curly tusks adorned with flowers, playfully tries to keep up with his antics. Their adorable offspring, clad in miniature human clothes, join in on the fun, attempting to skip with a rope and playfully wheeling a shuttlecock back and forth with a stick. This charming, humanized depiction of pigs, an example of the popular anthropomorphism trend of the time, adds a touch of comic humor and lightheartedness to this delightful scene. The pigs' playful expressions and the joyful energy they exude are sure to bring a smile to the face of any viewer, transporting them to a simpler, more carefree time. As the family of pigs revels in their summertime games, the gentle breeze rustles through the grass, adding a sense of tranquility to the scene. This postcard, with its captivating imagery and timeless appeal, is a testament to the enduring power of humor and the joy of family and play.
