Victorian Christmas Angel Poinsettia Greeting Card, 1880s-1890s

What exactly is she doing sitting in the center of an enormous red poinsettia like it's her personal throne? Perched there in a white dress with one arm raised triumphantly while clutching what appears to be a small bouquet, this tiny woman seems convinced that botanical gigantism is cause for celebration. Her positioning directly in the flower's center raises questions that the Edwardian era was clearly not prepared to answer. A smaller, more modestly-sized poinsettia floats nearby, possibly observing the scene in horror. The gold script cheerfully wishes you 'Christmas joys,' as though being used as living furniture by a plant is the peak of seasonal whimsy.
