A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, 1845
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the festive spirit of the 19th century. Created by W. J. Linton, this illustration was featured in the "Illustrated London News" in 1845. In this delightful scene, we see a jolly figure raising his tankard in celebration while gesturing towards an array of bottles and glasses. The engraving beautifully captures the essence of merriment during the holiday season. The jovial man with facial hair exudes cheerfulness as he invites us to partake in the joyous occasion. His mutton chop sideburns add a touch of character to his already charismatic presence. Surrounded by nature's bounty, including common holly and honeysuckle plants, this image evokes feelings of warmth and conviviality. It reminds us of simpler times when people gathered together to share laughter, good company, and perhaps indulge in some festive libations. The graphic design skillfully combines elements like glassware and beer bottles with traditional Christmas symbols such as holly leaves and berries. This fusion creates a unique visual concept that represents both revelry and tradition. As we admire this enchanting piece from W. J. Linton's collection, it transports us back to Victorian Britain—a time when newspapers were at their prime—and allows us to appreciate the timeless beauty captured within its frames.
