EDITORS COMMENTS
A Victorian Era Christmas Card Depicting the Flight into Egypt: A Biblical Scene of Protection and Safety This beautiful late 19th-century Christmas card features a captivating image of the Flight into Egypt, a significant biblical narrative from the New Testament. The scene portrays the Holy Family - Mary, Joseph, and the infant Jesus - making their way to Egypt to escape King Herod's decree to kill all the male children in Bethlehem. The serene image showcases Mary and Joseph, dressed in traditional Victorian attire, sitting atop a donkey as they journey towards the pyramids in the distance. The pyramids, symbols of ancient Egypt's rich history and power, represent the safety and protection that the family found in this foreign land. The blue background adds a calming effect, emphasizing the peaceful nature of the scene. The text at the bottom of the card reads, "Merry Christmas," reminding us of the true meaning of the holiday season - the birth of Jesus and the gift of love, hope, and salvation. This historical card is a testament to the enduring significance of religious themes in Christmas celebrations and the power of art to convey the spirit of the season.
