Easter Postcard
Easter postcards are a form of greeting card traditionally sent to celebrate the Christian holiday of Easter. These cards often feature religious imagery, such as depictions of Jesus Christ's resurrection, as well as secular symbols like the Easter Bunny and Easter eggs. The tradition of sending Easter postcards dates back to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, coinciding with the rise of the postcard as a popular means of communication.
History[edit]
The practice of sending Easter postcards began in the late 1800s, during a time when postcards were becoming a popular and affordable way to send greetings. The first Easter postcards were produced in Germany, which was a major center for postcard production at the time. These early cards often featured elaborate designs and were printed using chromolithography, a method that allowed for vibrant colors.
By the early 20th century, Easter postcards had become popular in many countries, including the United States and the United Kingdom. The imagery on these cards varied widely, from religious scenes depicting the resurrection of Jesus to more secular themes featuring springtime flowers, chicks, and rabbits.
Imagery and Themes[edit]
Easter postcards often feature a mix of religious and secular imagery. Common religious themes include depictions of the resurrection of Jesus, crosses, and angels. Secular themes often include symbols of spring and renewal, such as flowers, eggs, and the Easter Bunny.
The Easter Bunny, a symbol of fertility and new life, is a popular motif on Easter postcards. This character is often depicted delivering eggs or interacting with children, symbolizing the joy and renewal associated with the Easter season.
Collecting Easter Postcards[edit]
Easter postcards are a popular collectible among postcard enthusiasts and those interested in holiday memorabilia. Collectors often seek out cards from specific time periods, such as the Victorian era or the early 20th century, as well as cards featuring particular themes or artists.
