EDITORS COMMENTS
A Boy with Daisies on a Palette-Shaped Christmas Card, Circa 1890s This enchanting photograph captures the innocence and charm of childhood during the late Victorian era. The image features a young boy, likely around 7 or 8 years old, dressed in a brown sailor suit with breeches and a blue collar. His rosy cheeks and mischievous grin radiate joy and playfulness. The boy is seated on a wooden stool, his legs crossed, as he carefully arranges a bouquet of daisies on a palette-shaped Christmas card. The card, shaped like an artist's palette, adds a whimsical touch to the scene, making it a unique and thoughtful holiday greeting. The daisies, with their delicate pink and white petals, contrast beautifully against the boy's brown attire and the dark background. The natural light streaming in from the window illuminates the scene, casting a warm and inviting glow. The photograph, taken circa 1890s, is part of The David Pearson Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library. It offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a simpler time when children's joy was found in the simple pleasures of life, such as picking daisies and sending them as Christmas greetings. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the magic and wonder of childhood and the enduring charm of the holiday season.
