Karl Feiertag — Children in a Vintage Car · Art Postcard

Signed 'K. Feiertag', this watercolor scene shows two children riding cheek to cheek in an early open-top motorcar — a boy in a green driving cap gripping the wheel, a girl in a wide ribboned hat holding a bouquet of pink and red roses. They wear the delighted faces of children playing at grown-up motoring, a favourite postcard conceit of the age, and Karl Feiertag fills the moment with movement: a coat collar caught by the wind, roses pressed close, none of the stillness of a posed portrait. It makes a warm, playful card for a friend who loves vintage automobiles, a note to a young motoring fan, or anyone charmed by early-1900s whimsy. Reproduced at 10×15 cm on 350 g/m² card stock, easy to send through the postcrossing network to a fellow collector of vintage charm.
