EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming Victorian Christmas card captures the whimsical spirit of the holiday season with its delightful imagery. In this colorful lithograph, we see Father Time taking center stage as he energetically bangs a drum, creating a festive rhythm that fills the air. Standing by his side are two owls dressed in scholarly attire, complete with graduate caps and glasses, adding an amusing touch to the scene. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every element of this print. From the intricate patterns on Father Time's robe to the holly adorning his hat, each aspect exudes a sense of celebration and merriment. The anthropomorphic portrayal of these wise birds adds an endearing quality to their presence, making them truly unforgettable characters. Dating back to around 1880, this Victorian Christmas card embodies the charm and nostalgia associated with this era. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when greeting cards were cherished keepsakes exchanged during the holiday season. Now preserved within a private collection, this artwork by an anonymous English School artist continues to captivate viewers even today. Its timeless appeal transcends generations and reminds us all of the joyous festivities that come along with Christmas.
