EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming Victorian New Year card, we are transported back to the 19th century, where a young child eagerly lifts a net curtain to catch a glimpse of a jester and a ball on the floor. The vibrant colors of this color lithograph bring life to the scene, capturing the joy and curiosity of childhood. The child's excitement is palpable as they peer through the delicate net curtain, their eyes wide with anticipation. Perhaps they have been entertained by jesters before or have heard tales of their whimsical antics. The jester himself stands tall and proud, wearing his traditional colorful attire and holding onto his puppet companion. As we admire this delightful image, we can't help but imagine ourselves in that moment - sharing in the child's wonderment at the spectacle unfolding before them. The presence of a New Year greeting card suggests that this print was meant to convey good wishes for the upcoming year – an optimistic start filled with laughter and merriment. This artwork from Bridgeman Images serves as both an artistic treasure from English history and a reminder of our shared human experiences across time. It invites us to appreciate simple pleasures, embrace curiosity, and celebrate new beginnings as we step into another year full of possibilities.
