Clover Contented Parasol Pigs Purse Romance Romantic Umbrella Verse Walk
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming 1890s postcard depicting a contented pig couple enjoying a romantic stroll through the picturesque French countryside. Dressed in their finest attire, the pork pair don elegant red outfits complete with top hats and jackets for the gentleman, and matching dresses and parasols for the ladies. Their joyful expressions and playful interaction suggest a deep connection between the two, as they share a moment of blissful happiness under the shade of a large red umbrella. The idyllic scene is further enhanced by the presence of a clover-filled field, adding a touch of whimsy and natural beauty to the composition. The use of vibrant colors and intricate details in the clothing and accessories, such as the purse and hat adornments, showcase the meticulous craftsmanship of the era. This postcard, with its delightful blend of humor and romance, serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of love and companionship, even in the most unexpected of forms. The verse on the reverse side reads, "Two little pigs went out to dine, One had a parasol, the other had a clover in his wine." This lighthearted verse adds to the overall charm of the postcard and invites the viewer to appreciate the simple joys of life.
