Vintage Embossed Horseshoe Postcard with Cottage & Church Scene

This charming vintage postcard features a beautifully embossed horseshoe framing a quaint rural scene of a thatched cottage and a church tower at sunset. The image is rendered in soft, muted tones of pinks and greens that evoke a peaceful countryside ambiance. The postcard includes a printed quote from Cowper, "God made the country, and man made the town," adding a thoughtful literary touch to the design.
