EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming Victorian New Year's card transports us back to the 19th century, where monkeys frolic and play in front of a beautifully crafted wooden lattice. The intricate details of this color lithograph capture the essence of a bygone era, showcasing the remarkable talent of the English School. The mischievous monkeys steal the spotlight as they swing from branch to branch, their playful antics bringing joy and laughter to all who behold this delightful scene. Amongst them is a curious chimpanzee, adding an element of fascination to this whimsical composition. As we peer closer, we notice that these clever creatures hold carrots in their hands – perhaps a symbol of good luck or abundance for the upcoming year. This Victorian greeting card serves as a reminder that even in simpler times, celebrations were filled with creativity and imagination. Preserved within a private collection, this photograph captures not only the beauty but also the historical significance of such artwork. It reminds us how art has always been intertwined with our lives and traditions throughout history. Through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are able to appreciate every brushstroke and detail that went into creating this masterpiece.
