A rabbit perched on the back of a goat, with a basket-like scatter of Easter eggs and a few chicks around them, gives this picture a playful, almost storybook character that sets it apart from the more traditional bunny-and-egg scenes on this board. Images like this belong to the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, when printed holiday cards and postcards often used animals in whimsical, human-like situations to appeal to children. Easter had by then become a popular occasion for such novelty imagery, and the mix of rabbit, goat, eggs and chicks reflects the period's taste for comic anthropomorphism. The scene is worth a closer look for its humor and for what it shows about how the holiday was pictured for young audiences.
