Pet Lamb, from the Household Pets series (N194) issued by Wm. S. Kimball & Co. 1891

"Pet Lamb" is a chromolithograph from the "Household Pets" series produced by Wm. S. Kimball & Co. in 1891. The card depicts a young woman in a red and blue dress, holding a small white lamb in her lap. The image is characteristic of the sentimental Victorian aesthetic, with a delicate and romantic style. The use of chromolithography, a printing process using multiple colors, creates vibrant and detailed imagery, typical of trade cards from the late 19th century. The image was part of a larger series of cards, likely distributed as advertising for the company's products. This card is currently part of the collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
