EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this beautiful late Victorian Christmas card image, dating from the 1890s. The card features a charming arrangement of seasonal foliage and flowers, with a spray of pristine white lilies at its center. Intertwined among the lilies are branches of holly and mistletoe, their bright red berries and glossy green leaves adding a pop of color against the wintery backdrop. Holly and mistletoe were long-standing symbols of the winter solstice and the promise of renewal and rebirth. The cross, a powerful religious symbol, is also present in this image, adding an element of faith and spirituality to the design. The delicate pink and blue flowers surrounding the cross are reminiscent of the Virgin Mary's roses and lilies, further emphasizing the card's religious significance. This exquisite Christmas card is a testament to the rich history and tradition of the holiday season. The intricate details of the foliage and flowers, as well as the elegant design of the card itself, speak to the care and craftsmanship that went into creating a special message of joy and goodwill during this time of year. Whether displayed as a cherished keepsake or sent to loved ones, this card is a beautiful reminder of the enduring beauty and meaning of the Christmas season.
