EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and celebrate the turn of a new year with this enchanting image from the late Victorian era. Circa 1890s, this charming New Year card features a group of men and women dressed in historical costumes, braving the cold weather and standing and sitting on a frozen lake. The festive spirit is palpable as they spell out the words "NEW YEAR" with their bodies, their heads and hands forming each letter. Dressed in vibrant red, yellow, green, blue, and other rich colors, they exude a sense of joy and camaraderie, despite the frigid conditions. The men wear traditional frock coats, top hats, and cravats, while the women don elegant gowns and bonnets. Some men are even seen kneeling on the ice, adding an extra touch of drama to the scene. The text "A Happy New Year" is written in elegant script at the bottom, adding a personal touch to the card. This image transports us back to a simpler time, when people came together to celebrate the start of a new year, no matter the weather. The frozen lake, the winter weather, and the colorful costumes all combine to create a stunning visual representation of the spirit of the season. The Victorian era was known for its love of tradition and heritage, and this card is a testament to that. It is a beautiful reminder of the past and the importance of cherishing the moments and the people in our lives, as we welcome in a new year.
