EDITORS COMMENTS
"Step into a magical world of merriment and joy as we present this enchanting Victorian-era Christmas and New Year card featuring playful goblins frolicking atop a serene lily pad on a shimmering waterway. Dating back to the 1890s, this image invites us to indulge in the whimsical delights of the holiday season. Adorned in vibrant hues of green, pink, blue, purple, and yellow, these mischievous goblins, with their mischievous grins and twinkling eyes, seem to be having the time of their lives. They leap and dance, their antics echoing the exuberant spirit of the festive season. The gentle touch of a dragonfly alights on one goblin's outstretched hand, adding an element of surprise and delight. The tranquil lily pad, with its lush, verdant leaves, provides the perfect stage for this fantastical scene. The water beneath, a mirror-like reflection of the sky above, adds to the dreamlike atmosphere. The card's intricate details, from the delicate lines of the goblins' clothing to the delicate veins on the leaves, speak to the masterful craftsmanship of the era. As we gaze upon this charming image, we are transported back in time, allowing us to revel in the simple joys and enchantment of a bygone era. May the spirit of fun and enjoyment that these goblins exude fill your heart and home as we welcome the New Year." -Robert Dudley, Antiquarian Book Collector and Scholar.
