A painted rabbit takes center stage in this Easter greeting card, set against the spring palette that became a staple of holiday stationery in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Rabbits had long carried associations with fertility and new life, and by the early 1900s, as color lithography grew cheaper, publishers produced cards like this one by the millions for families to send to friends and relatives. Cards of this kind were often kept in scrapbooks or tucked into letters, which explains why so many survive today in good condition. Notice how the artist uses bright, cheerful color and a simple, friendly composition to make the greeting feel personal.
