EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming and enchanting New Year card from the late Victorian era, circa 1890s. The image features two dapper foxes in their formal attire, donning red and green uniforms adorned with gold accents, as they play their musical instruments in front of an impressive castle backdrop. The fox on the left skillfully plays the pipe, a traditional woodwind instrument, while the one on the right taps the drum with drumsticks, adding a rhythmic beat to the melody. The use of animals in human attire and musical instruments was a popular trend during this period, adding a whimsical touch to holiday celebrations. The intricate details of the foxes' uniforms and the grandeur of the castle create a sense of elegance and sophistication. This historical New Year card is a delightful reminder of the unique traditions and artistic expression of the late 1800s.
