A girl holding a basket of painted eggs, with rabbits gathered at her feet, makes this an Easter card in the sentimental style that flourished in the early twentieth century. Postcards like this were mailed in large numbers around the holiday, when cheap color printing had made illustrated greetings affordable for ordinary households. The rabbit and the decorated egg were already well-established Easter symbols by then, the rabbit tied to fertility and spring and the egg to renewal, and card makers combined them with childhood imagery to appeal to family senders. Look at the soft colors and the loose, idealized drawing, which show how the trade aimed for charm over realism.
