Christmas Animal Ecards Presents The History Of The Christmas Card
From the time I can remember, Christmas meant Christmas Ornaments and Christmas Angel Ecards. The Christmas card, as we recognize it, originated in England in the year 1843. An artist named John Calcott Horsley was appointed by Sir Henry Cole, a wealthy and successful London businessman, to create a card that could be sent out to his associates and clients to wish them a merry Christmas.
Sir Henry Cole was especially well known at the occasion, for a number of reasons. He had a assisting hand in helping to renew the British postal system. He played a prominent role in the making of the Royal Albert Hall, and acted as the construction manager on this considerable project. He also arranged for the Great Exhibition of 1851, and he oversaw the inauguration of the Victoria and Albert Museum.
One of Sir Henry Cole’s best aspirations in life was to beautify the world around him. He owned and operated a astonishing art shop on Bond Street, which specialized in decorative objects for the family unit. His shop was hugely well-liked with the British upper class, and he earned a tidy sum from his business.
The Christmas card he hireed was fashioned in the form of a triptych, which is a three-paneled plan that allows for the two outer panels to be folded in towards the middle one. Each of the two side panels illustrateed a lovely deed. The first displayed an illustration of persons clothing the poor, and the other side panel displayed an image of people feeding the hungry. The center piece had an image of a well-to-do family making a toast and surrounded by an enormous feast.
The writing on the inside of the card translate "A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you." Of the one thousand cards printed for Sir Henry Cole, just twelve exist today in restricted collections. The printed card became highly fashionable in England throughout the years that followed. They also became exceptionally popular in Germany. It took quite a prolonged period for the idea to catch on in America, then popularized by a German expatriate named Louis Prang in 1875. Today, more than 2 billion Christmas cards are exchanged each year. Merry Christmas, all!
