This Victorian birthday card takes us back to the elegant and sentimental world of the 19th century. The beautifully colored lithograph showcases a casket overflowing with delicate violets and a spray of snowdrops, symbolizing purity and new beginnings. This exquisite piece of art, dating back to circa 1880, is now part of a private collection. The attention to detail in this print is remarkable; every petal seems to come alive with vibrant hues. The artist from the English School has masterfully captured the essence of these flowers, evoking feelings of grace and beauty. In an era where handwritten letters were cherished means of communication, this card would have been treasured by its recipient.
