EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of the late Victorian era with this charming and delightful image of four playful kittens frolicking in the snowy winter landscape. The kittens, with their bright, curious eyes and fluffy coats, are in the midst of a joyful moment, engaging in a playful game, oblivious to the world around them. The fifth kitten, named Alther, watches over them with a protective and loving gaze, his expression filled with happiness and contentment. This beautiful greeting card, dating back to circa 1890, is a perfect representation of the anthropomorphic trend that was popular during the Victorian period. The use of anthropomorphism, which is the attribution of human characteristics and emotions to non-human entities, adds a sweet and endearing touch to this seasonal scene. The snow-covered trees and the crisp, white ground add to the wintery charm of the image, making it a fitting choice for the festive season. The overall effect is one of warmth, happiness, and nostalgia, transporting us back to a simpler time when life was filled with the simple pleasures of nature and the company of beloved pets. This image is a beautiful reminder of the joy and wonder that comes with the holiday season and the enduring bond between humans and their furry companions. A true treasure for any collector of Victorian-era prints or those who appreciate the charm of the season, this greeting card is a must-have addition to any collection.
