Celebrate the New Year with a fresh start and engaging conversations. This charming Chit-Chit print by Jacques-Louis Coppée after Jean-Baptiste Mallet brings back the elegance of 18th-century dinner parties. Reminiscent of a stock share certificate for Trinity River Navigation Co. (1895), its intricate stipple design symbolizes the excitement of new beginnings. Meanwhile, at a modern-day dinner party, a newly engaged couple shares laughter and stories, their happiness as radiant as a Happy New Year card turning over a new leaf. In contrast, the historical Billeting Voucher from 1759 reminds us of the social dilemmas of the past. Art Deco sketches by Fish (1921) capture the essence of chit-chatting in various settings - from the warmth of a cozy home to the crisp chill of the snow. And as we reflect on the importance of communication, we're transported to the picturesque Renault at Chateau, where the art of conversation flourishes amidst the beauty of nature. Planting potatoes or sharing stories, may your chit-chats be as fruitful and enjoyable as ever.
