Step back in time with this charming image of Christmas lamps from the late 19th century, circa 1890. The photograph, titled "Hearns Lamps, tastefully arranged round your front door," showcases an elegant and historical custom of decorating the entrance to welcome visitors during the festive season. The front door, adorned with these bright and tastefully arranged lamps, would have given a warm and inviting reception to guests as they approached the home. The lamps, with their intricate designs and ornate glass shades, add an air of sophistication and cheer to the scene. This photograph, from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the past and the rich history of Christmas decorations. In the late 1800s, Christmas celebrations were becoming more elaborate, and homes were adorned with various decorations to spread joy and spread warmth during the cold winter months. The use of lamps as Christmas decorations can be traced back to the Middle Ages, where they were used to represent the Star of Bethlehem. Over time, the tradition evolved, and lamps became a popular way to light up the home during the Christmas season. This image, taken circa 1890, captures the essence of the Christmas spirit and the importance of welcoming guests with open arms and a warm glow. The lamps, arranged tastefully around the front door, not only provided light but also added a touch of elegance and charm to the home. As we celebrate the holiday season, let us be inspired by this historical image and the customs of the past. Let us welcome our visitors with open hearts and brightly lit homes, just as our ancestors did over a century ago.
