EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming Christmas greetings card from the late 19th or early 20th century captures a delightful scene of a young girl carrying an umbrella on the wrapping of a parcel. The chromolitho print, created by an English School artist, showcases the intricate details and vibrant colors that were characteristic of this printing technique. The girl in the image is dressed in a warm coat, perfectly suited for winter weather. Her attire exudes elegance and style, reflecting the fashion trends of the time. With her umbrella held high above her head, she appears to be protecting herself and her precious package from any potential rain or snowfall. The use of wax seals and labels on the parcel adds an extra touch of nostalgia to this festive scene. It evokes memories of a time when handwritten letters and carefully wrapped gifts were eagerly anticipated during the holiday season. This beautiful piece of ephemera reminds us of simpler times when children's excitement for Christmas was palpable. It serves as a reminder that even small gestures like sending greeting cards can bring joy and warmth to our loved ones' hearts. Displayed proudly in private collections today, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its timeless charm. Its presence is a testament to both artistic skill and sentimental value – encapsulating the spirit of Christmas through artistry and tradition.
