Festive music and comforting famil-iar Christmas carols are holidaytraditions. This year the Museum

of Art’s annual Victorian Yuletide exhibi-tion, opening in the Fountain Elms periodrooms November 27, celebrates 19th-century music and melodies.

“O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree,Your branches green delight us.”

While the melody for O Tannenbaum isbased on traditional folk music, GermanErnst Anschutz wrote the modern lyricsin 1824. The words acknowledge theevolution of the Christmas tree as thecentral holiday decoration. Set for a fam-ily gathering and music recital, the parlorperiod room will feature a floor-to-ceilingtree adorned with glistening strands ofantique German glass beads, a nod to the origins of O Tannenbaumand to the many Christmas customs with German origins. No Christ-mas tree would be complete without presents scattered below. TheMuseum of Art’s delightful toy collection—featuring colorful doll china,a model stove, dolls, and many cherished toys once owned by Racheland Maria Williams—will be on view.

Surprisingly, not all households featured Christmas trees. Insteadmany families, including the Williams family of Fountain Elms, enjoyedlarge public Christmas trees. One early 20th-century version of a pub-lic Christmas tree is a craftily fashioned Bethlehem tree. The Museumhas carefully recreated this gift-bearing tree in celebration of O LittleTown of Bethlehem, a carol that originated in 1865. Each star-shaped

Melodies and MemoriesNew Victorian Yuletide Exhibition Celebrates Christmas Carols

November 27 through January 3section of the holly-trimmed tree on viewin the bedroom will be laden with cher-ished gifts.

Today’s American Christmas customsand carols are a mixture of manyadopted from European countries. TheHolly and the Ivy, a traditional British folkcarol published around 1814, symbolizesVictorian-era homes that were exces-sively draped in swags of both plants dur-ing the holiday season.

Holly and ivy arches crisscross the elabo-rately set dining table in Fountain Elmsthis season and accent the colorfulporcelain, fine crystal glasses andTiffany silver that grace the table.

“We wish you a Merry Christmas, And a happy New Year.

Good tidings we bring To you and your kin…”

The origin of these familiar lyrics lies in the English tradition of holidaywassailing. Groups of young men, a tankard in hand, traveled fromhouse to house singing. When invited inside, the revelers drank spicedale to the health of the hosts and demanded “figgy pudding.” TheFountain Elms library is ready to receive carolers and reward them withsweet treats and beverages for their good cheer.

Enjoy the cheerful celebrations of the festive season, explore the fasci-nating history of today’s Christmas customs, and view the extravagantinstallations during a visit to the Museum’s period rooms over the holi-days. Victorian Yuletide is on view through January 3.

The magic that NormanSchillawski captures in his pho-tographs is truly memorable.

Schillawski is a photographer from Cic-ero, N.Y. and a new addition to theartists represented at the MuseumShop. His goal is to create fine artphotographs. He feels a fine art photo-graph is an extension of himself; itmust be both technically correct andreflect his artistic inspiration. He says,"There is just something magical thatyou can take a box, point it at some-thing and capture something beautifulfor the world to see or something per-sonal to cherish forever”.

About a year ago, Debbie Dufresnebegan repurposing vintage ephemera such aspostcards, matchbooks, wrapping paper, ad-vertisements, stamps, greeting cards, etc. intopendants, keychains and bracelets. Prior tocreating and selling her creations, she spent30 years in journalism.

In conjunction with The Italian Presepe exhibi-tion, the Museum Shop will feature a variety ofholiday cards, ornaments and advent calen-dars with the Nativity theme as well as the ex-hibition catalog.
