EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image transports us back to Christmas Day, 1854, capturing the traditions and festivities of Victorian families during the 19th century. The scene is set with a series of vignettes, each one illustrating the day's celebrations. The first scene depicts children excitedly gathering around their stockings, eagerly anticipating the presents that await them. The stockings, hung by the fireplace, are filled with fruits, nuts, and small toys, symbolizing the joy and wonder of Christmas morning. The second vignette shows the family gathered around the church pew, dressed in their finest attire, ready to attend the Christmas Day service. The solemnity of the occasion is contrasted by the children's curiosity and fascination with the stained glass windows and the grandeur of the church. Following the church service, the family returns home for a hearty Christmas dinner. The table is laden with roasted meats, vegetables, and puddings, reflecting the abundance and generosity of the season. The family gathers around the table, sharing stories and laughter, savoring the delicious meal. The final vignette captures the spirit of Christmas evening, with the family gathered around the Christmas tree. They sing carols, dance, and tell stories, creating memories that will last a lifetime. The tree, adorned with candles, ornaments, and tinsel, casts a warm, inviting glow over the room, symbolizing the magic and wonder of the holiday season. This beautiful print, dating back to 1939, offers a glimpse into the traditions and celebrations of Christmas in the 1850s, a time when families came together to create lasting memories and cherish the joy and love of the season.
