EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of the Victorian era with this charming postcard image of frogs engaging in a playful swimming lesson. Dating back to the 1890s, this late Victorian greetings card showcases the whimsical and humanised depiction of these amphibian friends. The frogs, dressed in swim caps and goggles, are eagerly awaiting their turn to learn from their patient teacher, who stands by the edge of the pond, ready to offer guidance and encouragement. The anthropomorphic frogs display a range of expressions, from focused determination to curious excitement, adding a touch of comic humour and light-heartedness to the scene. The use of anthropomorphism, a common artistic technique during this period, allows us to connect with these creatures on a more relatable level, making this image all the more delightful. The frogs' vibrant green bodies contrast beautifully against the clear, calm waters of the pond, creating a visually stunning composition. The water shimmers in the sunlight, reflecting the surrounding foliage and adding depth and texture to the image. This postcard is a testament to the enduring charm of the Victorian era and the playful, imaginative spirit that defined it. Share this delightful snapshot of froggy life with your loved ones and bring a smile to their faces.
