EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving by Gustave Dore, we are transported back to the enchanting world of Victorian Christmas festivities. The image depicts "The Christmas Lord of Misrule" a figure known for bringing merriment and chaos during the holiday season. Dressed in elaborate robes and adorned with a crown, the Lord of Misrule commands attention as he presides over a gathering of revelers. His mischievous grin hints at the wild antics that are sure to ensue under his rule. The scene is filled with an air of excitement and anticipation, as people from all walks of life come together to celebrate in grand style. The room is lavishly decorated with festive ornaments, garlands, and candles casting a warm glow on the faces of those present. Every detail in Dore's engraving captures the drama and energy surrounding this traditional Christmas tradition. From musicians playing lively tunes to dancers twirling across the floor, it is evident that joyous revelry fills every corner. This print serves as a delightful reminder of how our ancestors celebrated Christmas centuries ago – embracing fun-filled chaos and allowing themselves to be swept away by the spirit of mirth and camaraderie. As we gaze upon this artwork today, we can't help but feel inspired to infuse our own celebrations with some old-fashioned whimsy and embrace the role of misrule ourselves!
