EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting Victorian Christmas card, we are transported back in time to the early 1920s. The vibrant colors of the lithograph bring to life a whimsical scene that captures the magic and wonder of the holiday season. At its center, a young child is depicted soaring through the air on the delicate wings of a butterfly. With joyous abandon, they embrace their newfound freedom as they fly above an idyllic winter landscape. The child's rosy cheeks and wide-eyed expression convey pure delight and innocence, reminding us of the simple joys that make Christmas so special. The presence of a fairy adds an element of fantasy to this charming tableau. Dressed in ethereal attire with gossamer wings, she guides both child and butterfly on their magical journey. Together, they create a harmonious blend between reality and imagination – two worlds seamlessly intertwined during this festive season. This delightful image not only celebrates Christmas but also pays homage to nature's beauty. The intricate details within each winged creature highlight our connection with wildlife and remind us to cherish all living beings during this time of love and compassion. As we gaze upon this vintage masterpiece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, it serves as a timeless reminder that even in times gone by, people found solace in art's ability to transport them into realms where dreams come true – just like flying on butterflies during Christmastime.
