EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into a bygone era with this enchanting Victorian Christmas card image of a mill wheel encrusted with ice and snow. Dating back to the 1890s, this charming print transports us to a cold winter's day, where the stillness of the scene is only broken by the delicate icicles that hang from the mill wheel's wooden spokes. The mill, with its tall, dark silhouette, stands proudly against the backdrop of a crisp, white winter landscape. The peacefulness of the scene is further emphasized by the absence of any signs of modern life, leaving us to imagine the quiet hush that would have settled over the surrounding countryside. This beautiful card, from The David Pearson Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, is a timeless reminder of the magic and wonder of a traditional Victorian Christmas, where the beauty of nature was celebrated in all its frosty splendor.
