Anthropomorphism Bread Clothed Cutlery Dinner Eating Fork Humanised Hungry Knife Markings Meat Plates Soup Terrier Terriers Wine
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming Victorian-era Christmas card image, featuring three lovingly depicted terriers enjoying their holiday dinner. Dressed in festive jackets and cozy clothing, these anthropomorphized canines sit around a small table adorned with plates, plates of steaming meat and soup, a knife and fork, and even a wine glass and bottle of wine for their human counterparts. The white and brown terriers, with their distinct markings and expressive faces, exude a sense of warmth and merriment, as they tuck into their hearty meal with obvious delight. The use of anthropomorphism in this late 1800s card adds a whimsical touch, transporting us to a bygone era where animals were often depicted as having human-like qualities and emotions. This delightful card, with its historical significance and enduring appeal, is a testament to the enduring bond between humans and their beloved pets, and the joy and warmth that the holiday season brings to all.
