EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming late Victorian postcard image from the 1890s, featuring a plump pig in a pink bathing dress and a bathchair being pushed by two mischievous monkeys in a picturesque park setting. The pig, looking rather content in its blue and white striped bathchair, is being attended to by a smartly-dressed footman in a red uniform, adding an air of humor and humanized whimsy to the scene. The monkeys, dressed in nanny caps and frilly dresses, are playfully pushing the chair, their mischievous grins suggesting they're up to no good. This delightful snapshot of a bygone era captures the spirit of the late Victorian period, with its blend of comedy, humour, and the unexpected juxtaposition of animals and humans. The lush greenery and clear blue sky of the park provide a beautiful backdrop to this unique and intriguing image, making it a must-have for any collection of vintage postcards or nostalgic memorabilia.
