EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting late Victorian Christmas card image, featuring two hares frolicking in the moonlight of a wintry evening. Dated circa 1890s, this beautiful card captures the magical essence of the holiday season, as the soft glow of the moon casts an ethereal light upon the snow-covered landscape. The hares, with their alert ears and graceful forms, are a common symbol of the renewal and rebirth associated with the pagan origins of Christmas. Their presence in this scene adds a touch of whimsy and wonder, as they seem to dance and play in the stillness of the night. The quaint, rustic cottage in the background, with its inviting windows aglow, serves as a reminder of the warmth and comfort of the holiday season. The snow-covered trees and rooftops in the distance further enhance the wintery scene, creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere. This charming Christmas card is a beautiful reminder of the history and traditions of the holiday season, and a delightful addition to any collection. The intricate detail and artistry of the image transport us back to a simpler time, where the magic of the season was found in the simple joys of nature and the warmth of family and friends.
