EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the whimsical world of the Victorian era with this charming and humorous Christmas card image from the 1890s. This delightful print features a frog and a duck, both in holiday spirit, sharing an amusing moment as the frog carefully balances an eggshell on his outstretched tongue, while the duck looks on with curiosity and amusement. The frog, with his rosy cheeks and holiday hat, exudes a jovial and human-like expression, adding to the anthropomorphic charm of the scene. The use of anthropomorphism in Victorian-era Christmas cards was a popular trend, allowing for the creation of lighthearted and comical images that brought joy and laughter to recipients during the festive season. This frog and duck scene, with its green and comic elements, is a perfect example of this Victorian tradition. The intricately detailed illustration showcases the skill and artistry of the time, with the natural textures and colors of the frog and duck, as well as the delicate eggshell, bringing the scene to life. The overall effect is a heartwarming and humorous image that transports us back to a simpler time, reminding us of the enjoyment and delight that can be found in even the smallest and most unexpected moments of life.
