EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting late Victorian Christmas card from the 1890s. The charming image features a boy and a girl, dressed in their finest winter attire, standing before a beautiful floral trellis adorned with forget-me-nots. The intricately detailed fretwork of the trellis adds an air of elegance and sophistication, while the lattice design creates a sense of whimsy and wonder. The children, bundled up against the cold, gaze lovingly at each other, their rosy cheeks and bright eyes reflecting the warmth and joy of the holiday season. The girl's white dress and blue sash contrast beautifully with the snowy backdrop, while the boy's fur-trimmed jacket and hat add a touch of rugged charm. Beneath the image, a pretty verse reads, "May the forget-me-nots of this season's greeting, Remind you of our friendship, ever sweet and ever meeting." This heartfelt message speaks to the enduring nature of friendship and the importance of cherishing those connections that bring us joy and happiness. The beauty and charm of this vintage Christmas card transport us back to a simpler time, a time when the magic of the holiday season was found in the simple pleasures of friendship and the warmth of loved ones.
