Step into the enchanting world of the late Victorian era with this charming and whimsical New Year's card featuring a little boy, dressed in white overalls and a red hat, playfully riding a movable goose. The card, dated circa 1890s, showcases the delightful innocence and imagination of childhood during this time. The goose, with its intricately detailed feathers and beady eyes, adds a touch of realism to this fantastical scene. The boys and girls in this era cherished the joy and excitement of the New Year, and sending and receiving New Year's cards was an essential tradition. This card, with its movable goose, would have been a particular favorite, bringing a smile to the faces of those who received it. The chef or cook hat on the little boy's head adds an unexpected twist to the scene, hinting at the playful nature of the card's design. The poultry theme, with its geese, further emphasizes the connection to the New Year, as geese were often featured in traditional New Year's dishes and symbolized good fortune. This beautiful and intricately crafted card is a testament to the artistry and creativity of the Victorian era. The details of the children's clothing, the goose's feathers, and the overall design make it a captivating piece of history that transports us back in time.
