Charles Edward Perugini

Charles Edward Perugini painted the Victorian age at its most graceful — Italian-born, London-trained, and beloved for portraits of young women caught in a private moment: reading, daydreaming, holding a bowl of goldfish up to the light. This collection turns eight of his paintings into collectible art postcards from Zolota Ptakha Publishing House, printed on heavy 350 g/m² stock at 10×15 cm. Frame one, mail one to a fellow collector, or start a postcrossing exchange — each card carries a little of the academic painting tradition Perugini helped define, ready for a shelf, an album, or someone's mailbox.
