My Best Wishes by Post
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a charming and nostalgic glimpse into the holiday season of yesteryears. This delightful colour lithograph, created by an English School artist in the 20th century, captures the innocence and joy of two children as they eagerly post their Christmas cards. The scene depicts a snowy winter day, with the children bundled up in warm clothing as they stand outside a quaint post office. Their rosy cheeks and bright smiles reflect their excitement for spreading festive cheer through the mail. In their hands, they hold beautifully printed greeting cards adorned with seasonal motifs. This print not only showcases the timeless tradition of sending heartfelt wishes during Christmastime but also offers a fascinating insight into historical postal practices. The image portrays old-fashioned mailboxes and showcases how communication was once carried out through physical letters rather than digital means. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every element from the children's fashionable attire to the carefully wrapped parcels adds depth and authenticity to this nostalgic scene. It evokes feelings of warmth, nostalgia, and anticipation for both past generations who experienced such moments firsthand and contemporary viewers who long for simpler times. With its vibrant colours and endearing subject matter, "My Best Wishes by Post" serves as a reminder that even amidst technological advancements, there is still something magical about receiving handwritten greetings during the holiday season.
