EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of the late Victorian era with this charming New Year greeting card featuring two frogs in an amusing musical performance. Dating back to the 1890s, this antique card showcases the playful use of anthropomorphism, a popular artistic style during this time, as these green reptiles have been humanized with the addition of a flute and ladder. The frog on the left, dressed in a dapper suit and top hat, takes a serious stance as he holds the flute to his lips, ready to play a melodic tune. His companion, wearing a bow tie and holding the ladder, looks on with a supportive expression. The ladder, made of intricately carved wood, leans against a lush grassy background, providing a sense of stability and a hint of the climb to come. The frogs' comic and humorous interaction adds a delightful touch to this historical card. The woodwind instrument, a popular choice for musicians during this time, adds to the musical theme, while the ladder suggests the idea of reaching new heights and the start of something new – a fitting symbolism for the New Year. This beautiful card, with its intricate details and timeless charm, offers a glimpse into the past and the whimsical world of Victorian-era greeting cards. It is a wonderful reminder of the joy and humor that has long been associated with the New Year and the hope for a fresh start.
