EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the whimsical world of the late Victorian era with this charming French postcard featuring a lively procession of kittens playing music. Dressed in miniature military uniforms, these adorable tabby cats proudly carry brass instruments - a trumpet and an euphonium - as they lead the march with playful expressions on their faces. Accompanying them are pink roses, adding a touch of elegance and sweetness to this delightful scene. Anthropomorphism, the attribution of human qualities to non-human entities, reaches new heights in this comic postcard. The kittens' humanized actions of playing music and carrying flowers evoke a sense of humor and lightheartedness, making it an ideal birthday greeting. The intricate details of their uniforms and the vibrant colors of the roses showcase the meticulous craftsmanship of the era. This postcard, dating back to the 1890s, is a testament to the artistic and imaginative spirit of the late Victorian period. It invites us to appreciate the simple joys of life and the boundless creativity that can be found even in the most unexpected places - like a procession of kittens playing music on a French birthday postcard.
