Shown above are some of those who attended. The Sto,ry dancers are Connie Beuerman, Vicki Harris, Peggy Dennis, Beth McNichol, Marlene Glanville and Verne Sawyer. (Staff Photos) A picture of a beautiful woman on a current Christ- mas card would seem inap- propriate to many. But fem- inine beauty enjoyed great popularity in Christmas cards during the late 1880's. Until 1880, children and elderly women were most often pictured. Or, if adult young women did appear, they were shown as "tenders of the hearth," with their husbands, children or pets. Later, classic Greek and Roman feminine figures were used' to convey ideals of feel- ing and beauty, Artists of t he Royal Acad- emy in London began the new fashion for using con- temporary women in their Christmas card illustrations in 1881, One of the earliest of these was designed.by W. F. Yeames and showed a richly- gowned young woman asleep in a chair, with winged cu- pids in a golden cage. In 1885, fashion figures of elegant women were a typi- cal subject of Christmas cards. An example is a Louis Prang card from the Nor- cross Historical Collection, Mr, Prang, who published the best-known early greet- ing cards in the U.S,, con- ducted a Christmas card competition. The $1,000 first prize was won by Elihu Ved- der, a well-known American artist . The model for his success- ful illustratiw' was his wife, and the inscription read, in part, ''Thy own wish wish I thee in every place.- Later Christnms cards de- picted women as fashion plates, sportswomen, cyclists and, in general, growing par- ticipants in the life of their times, (PPE 11,INC: F11,111.1 (.1t(11, l' I.ti Si'liJEC,T of 11), 1885 I milk Prang I ihristmas card shorn here.
