EDITORS COMMENTS
- A Whimsical New Year's Eve Celebration from Late 19th Century Italy This delightful print, titled "Auguri e Felicitazioni," is an amusing illustration from an Italian illustrated periodical, showcasing a frog-themed New Year's Eve celebration, circa 1881. The image is filled with whimsy and humor as a group of frogs, dressed in street clothes, emerge from a packing crate, each carrying New Year's greetings on strips of paper. A well-dressed woman looks on, intrigued by the unusual sight. In the background, more frogs engage in various modes of transportation, including a tram, a hot air balloon, and a train marked with the year 1881. The frogs' enthusiasm for the New Year knows no bounds as they also frolic on top of iconic landmarks such as Mount Vesuvius and the pyramids in Egypt. The frogs' fascination with flight and aeronautics is evident in the scene, as some of them are shown experimenting with wings and attempting to take flight. This playful depiction of the New Year's Eve festivities reflects the spirit of innovation and adventure that characterized the late 19th century. This charming print, with its unique blend of humor and imagination, offers a glimpse into the past and the whimsical way Italians celebrated the New Year over a century ago. The print is not associated with any specific company and is available for rights-managed use only.
