EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful Victorian Christmas card captures the festive spirit with its playful depiction of six monkeys on a ledge. Created in 1880, this colour lithograph showcases the artistic talent of the English School from the 19th century. The mischievous monkeys are depicted in vivid detail, each one engaged in their own antics. Some are seen juggling fruits while others seem to be engaging in a lively conversation. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring these whimsical creatures to life, adding a touch of joy and merriment to any holiday celebration. This charming greeting card is sure to evoke feelings of nostalgia as it harks back to a bygone era when sending handwritten greetings was an art form itself. It serves as a reminder that even amidst the hustle and bustle of modern life, taking time to connect with loved ones during the Christmas season is truly special. With its botanical elements and references to natural history, this print also appeals to those with an interest in science and botany. The inclusion of fruits adds another layer of symbolism, representing abundance and prosperity during this festive time. Whether displayed as part of a collection or sent as a heartfelt message, this Victorian Christmas card brings timeless charm and cheer into any home during the holiday season.
