EDITORS COMMENTS
Christmas Morning - Decorating the Signboard captures the festive spirit of a Victorian street, as a group of cheerful individuals come together to adorn a signboard with holiday decorations. The color lithograph by Henry John Yeend King, dating back to 1882, beautifully portrays the joy and excitement that filled the air on this special day. In this delightful scene, we see men and women working side by side in the cold winter morning. A ladder is propped against an old inn's signboard, where a woman carefully hangs holly branches while her male companion assists from below. Snow covers the ground and rooftops, adding to the enchanting atmosphere. The image showcases not only the act of decorating but also highlights elements of community and camaraderie during Christmas time. Passersby stop to observe or lend a helping hand, spreading warmth and cheer throughout this bustling street. Published in The Graphic Christmas Number in 1882, this print transports us back in time to experience Victorian-era festivities firsthand. It reminds us of simpler times when simple acts like adorning signs brought immense joy and anticipation for celebrations ahead. This artwork from Bridgeman Images invites us into an era where public houses like 'The Boars Head' were at the heart of merriment during Christmas season. Let it serve as a reminder that even amidst chilly weather, good company and shared moments can bring forth true holiday magic.
