Literary Calligraphy by Susan Loy


Christmas Selections - "HALLELUJAH ANGEL CHRISTMAS CARD"
Ralph Waldo Emerson

HALLELUJAH ANGEL CHRISTMAS CARD Susan Loy created a Literary Calligraphy Christmas card based on Ralph Waldo Emerson's ecstatic observation about Handel's Messiah in his personal journal dated December 25, 1843.

"At the performing of Handel's Messiah I heard some delicious strains and understood very little of all that was told me. My ear received but a little thereof. But as the master overpowered the littleness and incapableness of the performers, and made them conductors of his electricity, so it was easy to see what efforts nature was making through so many hoarse, wooden and imperfect persons to produce beautiful voices, fluid and soulguided men and women. The genius of nature could well be discerned."

An angel with a trumpet is surrounded by a many-colored text including a repeating pattern using the single word "Hallelujah." The predominant colors are deep red and blue. Additional text surrounding the angel is directly from Handel's lyrics (Luke 2:9).

Inside message: Happy Holidays.

4-1/2" x 5-1/2" with 9 white envelopes in clear box with ribbon tie.
