EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this delightful Victorian-era Christmas card image, featuring four energetic dogs proudly riding penny-farthing bicycles up a steep, snow-covered hill. Dating back to the 1890s, this charming print showcases the playful and humanized side of animals, a popular trend during the late 19th century known as anthropomorphism. The dogs, likely greyhounds for their speed and agility, are shown in mid-ride, their tongues hanging out in an effort to keep cool despite the exertion. The penny-farthings, with their large front wheel and small rear wheel, were a common mode of transportation during this period, adding an authentic touch to the scene. The card's intricate details and vibrant colors bring the image to life, transporting us back to a time when Christmas cards were handcrafted works of art. The steep hill, covered in snow, adds a sense of adventure and excitement to the scene, making for a truly unique and captivating Christmas card design. This historical print is a wonderful reminder of the rich history and creativity of the Victorian era, and a delightful addition to any holiday card collection. Whether you're a history buff, an animal lover, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of the past, this card is sure to bring joy and wonder to you and your loved ones during the holiday season.
