Easter greeting cards like this one, with a Good Shepherd figure set among daffodils, belong to a long tradition of seasonal cards that grew popular in the late 1800s and early 1900s, when printers could reproduce color lithographs cheaply and sent them through the mail. The Good Shepherd, a figure of Christ holding a lamb, draws on the Gospel of John and was a favorite subject for devotional art, while the daffodils signal spring and the renewal the holiday celebrates. Worth noticing is how the pairing of religious imagery with blooming flowers reflects the way card makers blended faith with the cheerful, nature-based sentiment of the season.
