EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up to this delightful Victorian-era Christmas card image, featuring a jovial clown gracefully riding a goose on a charming cutout design. Dating back to the 1890s, this whimsical card exudes an air of holiday cheer and comic humor. The clown, with his painted white face, red nose, and colorful attire, expertly holds the reins of his feathered steed, a goose adorned with holly and other festive greenery. The clown's umbrella adds an element of playful protection against any potential winter precipitation. This unique card design showcases the creativity and ingenuity of late Victorian-era Christmas card makers, who sought to bring joy and laughter to their loved ones during the holiday season. The inclusion of birds, specifically geese, was a common motif in Victorian Christmas cards, symbolizing the abundance and gifts that the season brings. The intricately painted details of the clown and goose, as well as the overall design of the card, highlight the artisanal craftsmanship of the time. This vintage Christmas card is a wonderful reminder of the lighter side of the holiday season and the importance of spreading joy and laughter among family and friends.
