Victorian Angel with Trumpet & Children Die-Cut Greeting Card
Description
Against the soft, snowy backdrop typical of Victorian sentimentality, this charming die-cut greeting card presents a strikingly industrious winged angel in a cream-colored winter coat and boots. The celestial figure holds a golden trumpet tucked under one arm while cradling a doll in a blue dress and a small white toy lamb, with a pink ribbon and yellow butterfly dangling from an outstretched hand. A small red book peeks from the angel's coat pocket, and a small apple rests on the snowy base. The masterful chromolithographic printing showcases exquisite detail and soft color gradations typical of high-quality Victorian greeting card production.
