Little Paul's Christmas, 1881 - A Glimpse into Victorian Festivities
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the enchanting world of a Victorian Christmas Eve in England. The artist remains anonymous, but their skillful depiction transports us to a bygone era filled with holiday cheer and wonder. The image showcases a cozy living room adorned with festive decorations and an ornate Christmas tree illuminated by candlelight. In the center, we see Little Paul, a cherubic child eagerly awaiting the arrival of Santa Claus. His eyes sparkle with anticipation as he gazes at a mesmerizing magic lantern projection on the wall. The slide projector, known as a lanterna magica during that time period, was an innovative display technology used for entertainment purposes. It projected colorful images onto surfaces using glass slides painted through chromolithography techniques. This artwork not only captures the spirit of Christmas but also provides insights into historical book design and graphic arts practices prevalent during the Belle Époque era. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of visual storytelling and film history. Preserved within this private collection is an exquisite piece that encapsulates both nostalgia and artistic excellence. As we admire this snapshot from long ago, it evokes feelings of warmth and joy associated with Holy Night celebrations during the late 19th century in Great Britain.
