Victorian Christmas Greeting Card with Anthropomorphic Ornaments

A leering candle with a smug, self-satisfied face blazes in the background—apparently every object at this holiday party is having a mental breakdown. A wide-eyed star ornament dangles from the tree branch looking like it just received catastrophic financial news, while a teal diamond-shaped ornament screams into the void with its whole mouth, having presumably witnessed the other two and made reasonable conclusions. Below this parade of sentient object trauma, a woman hides half her face behind a fan—a completely rational response—while a man in a hat serenades the chaos with a lyre, mouth agape, perhaps in harmony with the screaming diamond or perhaps just catching flies. The 'Merry Christmas' script sits in elegant gold at the bottom, doing absolutely zero heavy lifting against the backdrop of what is clearly a holiday gathering in a cursed dimension where inanimate objects have achieved consciousness and immediately regretted it.
