EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into a bygone era with this enchanting late Victorian postcard image of an angel standing amidst a snow-covered tree in the moonlit French night. Dating back to the 1890s, this scene transports us to a time when the magic of Christmas was steeped in mystery and wonder. The ethereal angel, with outstretched wings and a serene expression, gazes down upon the tranquil winter landscape. Her delicate features and flowing robes are accentuated by the soft glow of the moonlight, which filters through the branches of the towering tree. The tree, adorned with twinkling lights and ornaments, stands proud against the backdrop of a star-studded night sky, adding to the enchanting ambiance. The gentle falling snowflakes add a touch of whimsy to the scene, as they dance through the air and blanket the ground below. The peaceful stillness of the night is only broken by the occasional rustle of leaves or the gentle crunch of snow underfoot. This beautiful postcard, with its intricate details and dreamlike quality, is a testament to the enduring allure of the Christmas season. It invites us to take a moment to pause and reflect on the simple joys of life, as we bask in the warm glow of the holiday spirit.
