EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant Victorian Christmas and New Year card captures the whimsical spirit of the holiday season with its depiction of four clowns staging a pantomime. Created around 1880 by an unknown English artist, this colour lithograph showcases the creativity and playfulness that characterized festive celebrations during the era. In this charming scene, the clowns are adorned in elaborate costumes, each one more extravagant than the last. They strike comical poses while brandishing various props such as a chair, duster, fan, and even a razor! The mirror in the background reflects their joyful expressions as they bring laughter to all who witness their performance. The intricate details and vivid colors of this print evoke a sense of merriment and anticipation for both Christmas and New Year festivities. It serves as a delightful reminder of how people in Victorian times celebrated these holidays with theatrical productions like pantomimes. As we gaze upon this image from our private collection, it transports us back to an era where joy was found in simple pleasures and imagination knew no bounds. Let us embrace the festive spirit embodied by these jolly clowns as we welcome another year filled with cheer, laughter, and celebration.
