EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming Victorian die-cut shape card takes us back to a time when anthropomorphic animals were all the rage. In this whimsical scene, four pigs dressed in human clothes are seen merrily carrying a plump turkey, along with other festive treats like Christmas pudding, fruit, and wine bottles. The intricate detail of the die cutting technique brings these delightful characters to life. Created around 1880 by an unknown English School artist, this color lithograph captures the essence of Victorian holiday cheer. The pigs' expressions reveal their excitement and anticipation for the feast ahead. It's as if they have taken on human qualities and joined in the festivities themselves. The use of vibrant colors adds to the overall joyous atmosphere depicted in this image. Each element - from the carefully crafted shapes of the paper cutouts to the meticulously illustrated food items - showcases both artistic skill and attention to detail. This print is part of a private collection and has been preserved through time for us to appreciate today. As we gaze upon it, we can't help but be transported back in time to witness a moment frozen forever - one that combines botany, natural history, science, food, and above all else, holiday spirit.
