EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the whimsical world of the late Victorian era with this charming and humorous Christmas postcard image. Two well-dressed female pigs, adorned in elegant hats and clothing, sit at a beautifully set table for an afternoon tea party. The table is draped in a crisp, white tablecloth, and the pigs delicately hold their cups with gloved hands. The scene is filled with a sense of merriment and amusement, as the pigs enjoy this unconventional holiday tradition. Anthropomorphism, the attribution of human qualities and behaviors to non-human entities, was a popular artistic trend during the late 1800s. This playful representation of pigs in human attire adds a touch of humor and comic relief to the holiday season. The intricate details of the pigs' costumes, from their lace collars to their dainty gloves, show the care and attention given to this delightful illustration. This postcard, circa 1890s, invites us to imagine a world where animals can partake in the joys of the holiday season just like their human counterparts. The image brings a smile to our faces and reminds us of the importance of finding joy and laughter in the little things, even during the bustling holiday season.
