EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the whimsical world of the Victorian era with this charming and humorous Christmas card image featuring four anthropomorphic frogs enjoying a bicycle ride through a rustic, country lane. Dressed in winter attire, complete with scarves and hats, these frogs have mastered the art of human cycling, showcasing their playful personalities and unique sense of holiday cheer. The frog in the foreground even holds a pink parasol, adding an extra touch of elegance and femininity to this delightful scene. This quirky and comic card, which dates back to the late 1890s, showcases the popularity of anthropomorphism during the Victorian era. The use of humanized reptiles in art and literature was a common trend during this time, as people sought to find humor and wonder in the natural world. The inclusion of bicycles, a relatively new form of transportation during this period, adds an element of modernity and progress to the image. As you exchange holiday greetings with loved ones this season, consider sharing the joy and laughter of this vintage card. Its intricate details and charming storytelling make it a cherished addition to any Christmas card collection.
