Fun Facts About Victorian Era

👑

The Victorian era (1837-1901) was named after Queen Victoria, who ruled the United Kingdom for 63 years—the second-longest reign in British history until Queen Elizabeth II surpassed it.

🎩

Victorian fashion was elaborate and highly structured. Women wore corsets, crinolines, and bustles, while men sported top hats, frock coats, and high collars—elements you'll see adorning the animals in this coloring book!

🍵

Afternoon tea became a social ritual during the Victorian era when Anna, the Duchess of Bedford, complained of "having that sinking feeling" between lunch and dinner. The tradition quickly spread throughout society.

🏏

Many popular leisure activities were established during this period, including croquet, lawn tennis, and cycling. These recreational pastimes are featured in several illustrations in the Cozy Renaissance coloring book.

🏰

Victorian architecture is known for its ornate details, bay windows, and decorative trim—features that create the perfect backdrop for the adorable animal characters in these coloring pages.

Victorian-Inspired Coloring Tips

  • Use rich, deep colors like burgundy, forest green, and navy blue for authentic Victorian color schemes in the backgrounds and clothing.
  • Try gold or silver metallic pens for decorative elements like picture frames, jewelry, and architectural details to capture the opulence of the era.
  • For Victorian wallpaper and fabric patterns, use repeating colors in a consistent pattern to create an authentic period look.
  • Keep animal characters bright and cheerful to maintain the cute contrast with the formal Victorian settings.
  • Consider researching actual Victorian color palettes online for inspiration—the Victorians loved rich jewel tones and complex color combinations!
