Two sketches and the final invitation to a concert of the Magpie Madrigal Society at St James' Hall, Piccadilly, with a woman scattering seeds for the birds flying around her in a field by Edward Burne-Jones, 1897

The Magpie Madrigal Society, active from 1885 to 1911, was a group of affluent and well-connected amateur musicians who gave one Charity Concert and one Invitation Concert every year. Conducted by Lionel Benson, the Society dedicateditself chiefly to English madrigals of the 16th- and 17th-centuries. However, it also performed music written for its members by RCM professors and students, including Hubert Parry, Charles Villiers Stanford, Ralph Vaughan-Williams and Gustav Holst. Many of their concerts took place at the College, too. [...] Each year the Society’s concert invitations were designed by a different artist. Prominent 19th-century figures obliged, including George du Maurier, Herbert Menzies Marshall and Hubert von Herkomer. In 1897, it was the turn of Edward Burne-Jones.

I came across a 1891 Christmas card by Sir Hubert von Herkomer (shown below) whilst looking through the digital collections of the British Museum (1892,0212.22) and instantly knew that it had to be a Hogswatch card. This is only the first of the Hogswatch cards to come.

'Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest of the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place.

Looking for Crimean War-era middies and I discovered this picture of a young Jacky Fisher, who would champion the construction of HMS Dreadnought as First Sea Lord in the early 20th century, but here he's a Royal Navy midshipman in the 1850s (Wikimedia Commons):
