Easter Greetings

Description

Soft muted tones and green foliage form a nostalgic backdrop typical of early 1900s greeting card design, where a distinguished rabbit in blue overalls and apron carries a small red paint bucket and paintbrushes alongside a plump hen. The hen, with her red comb and wattle, bears the weight of a wicker basket filled with white eggs on her back as they walk together through the scene.

Subjects

rabbit, hen, eggs, basket, anthropomorphic animals, spring

Printing Notes

Hand-tinted chromolithographic print with fine detail work typical of Edwardian greeting card production
