EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the whimsical world of the Victorian era with this charming Christmas card image of a frog taking a constitutional walk, complete with an umbrella and a red smoking cap. Dressed in the fashionable attire of the time, this anthropomorphic frog exudes a sense of humor and merriment that is quintessentially Christmas. The serene setting of the card features a picturesque river scene, with tall reeds and rushes swaying gently in the breeze. The frog, with his blue umbrella and red smoking cap, is seen strolling along the water's edge, his cane or stick tapping rhythmically against the ground. The tassel on his cane adds a touch of elegance to his outfit, while the blue umbrella provides a striking contrast against the green and brown hues of the natural surroundings. The frog's red smoking cap is adorned with a tassel and a tobacco leaf design, adding to the overall comic effect of the image. The smoking cap and cigarette are remnants of an era when tobacco use was more common, and the frog's humanized features add a playful twist to the traditional Christmas card motif. This delightful card, dating back to the 1890s, is a testament to the enduring appeal of anthropomorphism and the power of humor to bring joy and laughter to our lives. Whether you're sending it to a friend or keeping it for your personal collection, this card is sure to bring a smile to your face and transport you to a bygone era of Christmas cheer.
