EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the whimsical world of the late Victorian era with this charming Christmas card featuring a cheerful Chef Pig proudly carrying a steaming hot pudding adorned with holly and a sprig of mistletoe. Dressed in a crisp white apron, overalls, and a red hat with a holly leaf design, this anthropomorphic pig dons a serious expression as he prepares to serve up a delightful treat for the holiday season. The playful use of anthropomorphism adds a touch of humor and comic relief to the festive card. This beautifully preserved card from The David Pearson Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the joy and merriment that once filled the homes of those who received this card during the 1890s. The intricate details of the Chef Pig's clothing and the delicate embellishments on the card's border further highlight the craftsmanship and artistry of the era. As we admire this delightful card, we can almost hear the laughter and cheer that would have filled the room as families and friends gathered together to celebrate the magic of Christmas. This Chef Pig card is a testament to the enduring charm and nostalgia of the holiday season and serves as a reminder that even the most ordinary moments can be transformed into cherished memories.
