EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming and intricately detailed Victorian Christmas card from the late 1890s features a delightful scene of two doves perched on the edge of a wooden shelf, surrounded by an array of shelves and a quaint, wooden house. A curious pigeon roosts nearby, adding to the lively and peaceful atmosphere of the scene. The doves, with their soft, white feathers and gentle expressions, symbolize peace and purity, making them a popular motif in Victorian Christmas cards. The intricate shape of the card adds to its charm, with the shelves and house giving the impression of a cozy, welcoming home. The muted colors and delicate details of the illustration evoke a sense of nostalgia and warmth, making this card a beautiful and timeless addition to any holiday collection.
