EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print depicts the charming character of Miss Grits, the grocer's daughter, from the classic Victorian card game "Happy Families," devised in Britain by Mr. Jacques in 1861. The game, which predated the more well-known "Crazy Eights," was a popular pastime for families and friends during the Victorian era. Miss Grits, with her determined expression and confident pose, represents the "Grocer's Daughter" card in the game. The image captures the essence of the era with its intricate detail and rich colors. The young girl's traditional Victorian attire, complete with a high collar, long sleeves, and a full skirt, is a testament to the fashion trends of the time. Her apron, adorned with various grocery items, adds a playful touch to the image and reinforces her identity as the grocer's daughter. The history of "Happy Families" is an interesting one, as it played a significant role in the development of card games in Britain. The game was originally called "Cassino" and was based on an Italian game called "Scopone." Mr. Jacques, a Frenchman, is credited with introducing the game to Britain and making it popular by adding the name "Happy Families" and creating the various character cards, including Miss Grits. This photograph print is a wonderful reminder of the rich history of card games and the role they played in Victorian society. It also serves as a beautiful decorative piece, adding a touch of nostalgia and charm to any room. Whether you're a history buff, a collector of vintage items, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of the past, this Miss Grits photograph print is sure to bring joy and intrigue to your home.
