EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of the late Victorian era with this delightful and charming image of five playful kittens engaging in a classic game of Blind Man's Bluff. Dating back to circa 1890, this antique greeting card from Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back in time to a simpler, happier season. The scene is set in the heart of winter, with the soft glow of a fireplace casting a warm and inviting light on the room. The kittens, dressed in their holiday best, are full of excitement and mischief as they playfully stumble around, trying to tag their blindfolded friend. Their anthropomorphic expressions and human-like behaviors add an endearing touch to this sweet and seasonal image. The use of anthropomorphism in Victorian-era art and literature was a popular trend during this time, allowing people to connect with animals on a deeper level and see them as sentient beings. This charming card is a perfect example of this artistic style, capturing the playful and innocent spirit of childhood and the joy of the holiday season. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost hear the laughter and giggles of the kittens and the rustling of the fireplace as the warmth envelops us. This Blind Man's Bluff scene is not only a delightful reminder of the simple joys of childhood, but also a beautiful representation of the enduring bond between humans and animals during the festive season.
