EDITORS COMMENTS
A whimsical and charming image graces this late Victorian Christmas card, featuring the kind old Fairy Godmother on her magical journey through the winter landscape. Designed by Robert Dudley in the 1880s, this card exudes a sense of warmth and goodwill as the fairy godmother, dressed in a flowing robe and pointed hat, rides on the back of a robin, surrounded by a flock of playful robins. The scene is filled with anthropomorphic delight as mice serve as footmen, holding onto the sides of the robin's carriage, while a coach and horses, complete with a footman, travel along the snowy road below. The fairy godmother extends her hand in a gesture of blessing, bestowing a Christmas dole of fair things upon her friend. The transport theme is continued with the use of birds as the mode of travel for the fairy godmother. The robin, a symbol of Christmas cheer, carries her gracefully through the air, while the robins accompanying her add a touch of comic humor and lightheartedness to the scene. The use of anthropomorphism adds a humanized touch to the animals, making this image even more endearing and delightful. This beautiful card, with its intricate details and rich colors, invites us to imagine the magic and wonder of a Victorian Christmas, filled with laughter, love, and the hope of good things to come.
