EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting photograph captures the ethereal beauty of an angelic figure from the late Victorian era, circa 1890s, holding a gleaming brass trumpet against a backdrop of lush Christmas foliage. The angel, with outstretched wings and a serene expression, appears humanised in her delicate white tunic and blue sash, her bare feet resting on a soft green mossy surface. The contrast between the angel's ethereal presence and the earthly elements of the Christmas scrap creates a magical scene that transports us to a bygone era. The two children, a girl and a boy, gazing up at the angel in wonder, add an element of innocence and delight to the image. The girl, with her hand shading her eyes, seems to be lost in thought, while the boy, with a curious expression, reaches out towards the angel, as if in awe of her musical fanfare. The angel's trumpet, a symbol of triumph and announcement, adds to the musical and festive atmosphere of the scene. The brass instrument, with its intricate engravings and polished surface, shines brightly against the rich green foliage, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to the image. This photograph, from The David Pearson Collection/Mary Evans Picture Library, is a stunning reminder of the magical and enchanting world of Victorian Christmas traditions, where angels and music brought joy and wonder to the season.
