EDITORS COMMENTS
Compliments of the Season: A Victorian Holiday Tradition (circa 1880s) This beautiful and intricately designed booklet cover, titled "Compliments of the Season," transports us back to the Victorian era and the joyous celebrations of Christmas during the late 1800s. The cover is adorned with a rich, black background, creating a striking contrast against the vibrant, decorative elements that surround it. The central focus of the design is a pair of robins perched on a holly branch, their red breasts adding a pop of color against the wintery backdrop. The robin, a symbol of good fortune and the harbinger of spring, was a popular motif during the Victorian era, particularly during the Christmas season. The cover is further embellished with a blue ribbon and bow, adding an elegant touch to the overall design. The border, filled with intricate patterns and designs, is a testament to the meticulous craftsmanship of the time. The title, "Compliments of the Season," was a common phrase used during the Victorian era to express well-wishes and good cheer during the holiday season. This booklet, likely filled with poems, stories, or songs, would have been a cherished gift or keepsake, passed from one family member to another. As we admire the beauty and detail of this cover, we are transported back in time, allowing us to experience the wonder and magic of a Victorian Christmas.
