EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this enchanting late Victorian greetings card featuring an owl perched serenely on a crescent moon. Dating back to the 1890s, this beautiful card is a captivating example of the intricate detail and artistry that defined the Victorian era. The owl, with its large, expressive eyes and distinctive ear tufts, gazes intently at the viewer, its sharp claws gripping tightly onto the moon's edge. The moon, with its delicate crescent shape and wispy clouds, provides a mystical backdrop for the nocturnal bird, adding to the overall ethereal quality of the image. The rich, earthy tones of the owl's feathers and the subtle textures of the moon's surface are brought to life through the intricate etching technique used to create the print. This card is not only a delightful piece of historical art but also a reminder of the enduring fascination with the natural world and the magical qualities of the night sky.
