EDITORS COMMENTS
A Merry Olde Christmas: An Owl Doctor's Visit to a Robin's Nest (circa 1880s) Step back in time with this delightful Victorian-era Christmas card, featuring an amusing scene of an owl doctor making a house call to a robin patient. Dressed in a long, frock coat and top hat, the wise old owl examines his red-breasted patient, who lies comfortably in a cozy bird's nest by the window. The robin, with a satisfied grin, appears to be recovering from an overindulgence in holiday feasts, possibly a Jack Horner-esque encounter with a plum pudding. The anthropomorphic charm of this late 1800s card brings a touch of whimsy and humor to the holiday season. The owl doctor, with his humanized features and medical bag, adds a sense of care and concern, while the robin patient, with its rosy cheeks and content expression, embodies the joy and warmth of the festive season. This charming card, reminiscent of the Victorian era's love for comic illustrations and anthropomorphism, is a delightful addition to any Christmas or New Year's greeting. The intricate details and vibrant colors transport us to a simpler time, where even the birds could enjoy a little holiday merriment.
