EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of the late Victorian era with this exquisite New Year greeting card in the form of a folding screen. Dating back to the 1890s, this unique and intricately decorated card is a testament to the artistic craftsmanship of the time. The screen, composed of two beautifully painted panels, opens to reveal a charming scene of an artist in deep concentration, surrounded by his tools of the trade. His palette brimming with vibrant hues, and a set of brushes neatly arranged, he is lost in the creative process, oblivious to the world around him. The verses inscribed on the panels add an extra layer of romance and sentiment to this delightful card. The intricate details of the painting, from the artist's flowing robes to the delicate brush strokes, are a feast for the eyes. The panels are adorned with intricate floral and foliage designs, adding to the overall elegance and charm of the card. This New Year greeting card in the shape of a folding screen is a rare find, a beautiful keepsake that transports us back in time to an era of love, romance, and artistic expression. A truly unique and thoughtful way to celebrate the start of a new year, this card is a must-have for any collector of vintage greeting cards or Victorian-era memorabilia.
