Easter Greetings

Description

Rich blues and greens saturate this charming Edwardian Easter greeting card, where two fashionably dressed children populate a pastoral garden setting. The girl, adorned with an elaborate green bow, wears a pristine white dress and holds a wicker basket overflowing with red eggs. Her young companion, dressed in a smart navy sailor suit with golden trim, stands beside her in admiring companionship. Two rabbits — one white and one brown — appear in the garden background, completing this quintessential Easter scene. The oval composition, bordered by decorative frame work and soft watercolor landscape, exemplifies the delicate chromolithographic printing techniques popular during this period, creating a serene springtime atmosphere.
