Vintage Easter Greeting Card Iris Riverside Scene Early 1900s

What exactly are we celebrating here—the resurrection of Christ or someone's fondness for dramatically drooping purple irises in a lake? Because a winding dirt path flanked by purple irises drooping into water is apparently the preferred method for expressing 'He is Risen'—which is the artistic equivalent of someone describing their Pinterest mood board as a personality. The lone birch tree dramatically bowing toward the water has serious 'I too am exhausted by the concept of spring' energy, and honestly, same. 'Eastertide'—boldly printed across the bottom in elegant script—is doing the heavy lifting of reminding you this is a religious holiday and not just a postcard some Victorian sent after a pleasant afternoon stroll to avoid their family.
