EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming Victorian Christmas card captures the whimsical spirit of the holiday season with its anthropomorphic portrayal of four pigs dressed in human clothes. Created around 1880, this die-cut shape card showcases the creativity and attention to detail that characterized Victorian-era paper crafts. The vibrant color lithograph brings these endearing porcine characters to life, as they don festive attire and strike playful poses. The pigs' expressions convey a sense of joy and merriment, evoking a warm and lighthearted atmosphere that is synonymous with Christmas celebrations. This delightful piece from an English School artist's private collection exemplifies the popularity of anthropomorphism during the 19th century. By attributing human characteristics to animals, artists aimed to create relatable and humorous scenes that would bring smiles to people's faces during the holiday season. The intricate die-cutting technique used in this card adds another layer of visual interest. Its unique shape enhances its appeal as a decorative item for display or gifting purposes. As we admire this vintage treasure, let us be reminded of the timeless traditions that unite us across generations - spreading cheer, laughter, and love during this special time of year.
