EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the magical world of the Victorian era with this enchanting postcard image of three children delighting in the joyous tradition of decorating a Christmas tree. Dressed in warm winter clothing, including hats and scarves, they huddle together in the crisp, white snow, their rosy cheeks glowing from the cold weather. The tree, adorned with holly and berries, stands proudly in the background, its branches laden with glass baubles and fruit, including apples. The children's faces are filled with excitement and wonder as they carefully hang each decoration, their eyes sparkling with the twinkling lights and the magic of the season. In the foreground, a curious deer peeks out from behind a tree, observing the scene with a gentle expression. The children seem unaware of the deer's presence, their focus solely on the task at hand. The peaceful, idyllic setting is a reminder of the simple pleasures of the holiday season and the joy that comes from spending time with loved ones. This beautiful postcard, dating back to the 1890s, captures the essence of a bygone era and the timeless tradition of decorating the Christmas tree. It's a heartwarming reminder of the beauty and wonder of the season, and a perfect way to spread holiday cheer.
