EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting Victorian-era Christmas card featuring an owl perched serenely on a crescent moon. Dating back to the 1890s, this beautiful card captures the magic of the night sky during the holiday season. The owl, with its large, expressive eyes and distinctive feathers, adds a touch of mystery and wonder to the scene. Two large, intricately detailed feathers are spread out beneath the owl, adding texture and depth to the image. The card's background is adorned with a seasonal verse, adding a poetic touch to the design. The verse reads, "In the stillness of the night, as snowflakes gently fall, A silent hush descends, and all is hushed and small. The Christmas tree in the corner gleams with light, And all around the world, the night is bright." This card's intricate details and historical charm make it a treasured find for collectors and enthusiasts of Victorian-era art and Christmas traditions. The rich brown and black tones of the owl's feathers contrast beautifully with the grey crescent moon, creating a striking and memorable image. This card is a testament to the enduring beauty and allure of the natural world, and the magic of the holiday season.
