EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into a bygone era with this exquisite Victorian Christmas card from the late 1890s. The card, shaped like a slice of wood from a tree trunk, adds an authentic touch of rustic charm to the holiday season. In the moonlit scene, Hurstmonceux Castle in Sussex, England, stands proudly amidst a blanket of snow, transporting us back to the Middle Ages. The medieval fortress, with its towering turrets and grand architecture, is a sight to behold, especially under the cold, winter weather. The intricate details of the castle's facade are brought to life against the stark white backdrop of the snow, making for a truly magical and enchanting Christmas greeting. The wood slice card, with its realistic texture and natural beauty, adds a tactile element to the holiday card tradition, making it a unique and cherished keepsake. This beautiful card is a testament to the enduring charm of the Victorian era and the timeless appeal of the Christmas season.
