Lead with the particular: a girl cradling white rabbits beside a basket of eggs, a pairing that turns the usual Easter scene into a single domestic tableau. Postcards like this one were produced in large numbers in the early 20th century, when illustrated greeting cards were a popular way to send holiday wishes through the mail. Printers often combined a few stock motifs, such as children, rabbits and painted eggs, in soft colors and decorative borders, so the card reads as both a seasonal greeting and a small record of how spring was pictured for a mass audience. Look closely at the rabbits and the eggs, which show the sentimental style that made these cards so widely collected.
