EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the magical world of the late Victorian era with this enchanting New Year card image, featuring two mischievous cats in the snow, in a playful chase with a bird. The scene unfolds as the cats, with their piercing eyes and fluffy coats, attempt to steal a few scraps of meat from under the unsuspecting bird's watchful gaze. The bird, a blackbird or starling, is momentarily distracted from its meal, with its wings flapping in a futile attempt to take flight and protect its hard-earned food. The snow-covered ground is dotted with holly berries and red accents, adding a touch of festivity to the scene. The cats' triumphant expressions and the bird's surprised look capture the essence of the holiday spirit – a time for joy, merriment, and a little bit of fun. This charming and historical card, circa 1890s, is a delightful reminder of the simple pleasures of the past and the enduring bond between animals and their human companions.
