It is not known for certain when the first postcard appeared, but some historians believe that not so long ago - only 200 years ago. The “grandmother” of the modern postcard is a business card with wishes, which the Chinese sent to those whom they could not see on a holiday. They even had a certain system of symbols: for example, the image of a bat meant a wish for family happiness, and a fish symbolized wealth and prosperity.

In 1795, the first series of Christmas cards was released in Europe, the author of which was the artist Dobson, unknown until then. They depicted a still popular scene: a family around a decorated Christmas tree. Five years later, these postcards were already sold along with letter paper and envelopes.

Postcards appeared in Russia much later - only in 1872. Initially, they were not illustrated: one side was intended for writing an address, and on the other a message was written. The first “color” postcards contained images of Moscow sights, and soon they became a real work of art: they were used to decorate living spaces, were collected, and pasted into personalized albums.

In pre-revolutionary Russia, postcards were no worse than modern ones: they were decorated with dried flowers, decorated with beads, sparkles that looked like real snow, and even scented; Embossing and gilding were also widely used.
New Year's cards most often depicted old Russian rituals, forests and huts buried in snow, church domes and, of course, Father Frost and the Snow Maiden, racing on three beautiful horses, carefree children and angels.

After 1917, greeting cards ceased to be issued almost completely. However, it was not possible to eradicate the tradition of sending holiday greetings to family and friends. The first Soviet New Year's cards featured images of the Kremlin towers, Father Frost and the Snow Maiden.

One can only admire the works of the Englishman Joseph Holodook. Its cute snowmen decorating New Year cards as of 2017, have fans all over the world. Many people even collect a collection of these postcards with the famous series of snowmen.


Postcard illustrations by American Donna Green touch to the core. Her work is dedicated exclusively to children. Together with the main characters of winter stories - children who skate, decorate a Christmas tree, listen to grandmother's fairy tales, we seem to be immersed in a distant and cloudless country of childhood.
