Santa Claus Leading Cherubs Through a Forest Postcard
Description
This postcard is oriented vertically and is set in a nighttime forest where Santa Claus carries a lit torch and leads five cherub angels as they carry toys. He stands in the center of the postcard in an open space and looks down at the angels, holding holly leaves in his hand. Over his right shoulder hangs holly leaf garland. Behind him a crescent moon and starry sky is seen between bare trees with small evergreen plants around them. The five cherubs are wearing various dresses and have small white wings on their backs. They carry a basket of apples, toy horses, dolls, a bag of toys, and a drum. They wear fur lined boots as they walk forward. In the bottom center of the card it reads "Merry Christmas" on a pink scroll surrounded by holly leaves and berries.
The card is divided into two scenes. In the lower half, a white marble tomb stands open with flowers inside insetad of a body. There is a crowd of men and women standing around it, all looking upwards to the top scene. There, perched on a cloud, Mary is dressed in blue and crowned by a red-robed Jesus. There is a crowd of angels around them and cherubs overhead. The words below the scene are not clear enough to read, although the ones in the corner say "Roma - Vaticano".
Jesus is dressed in a white robe with blue cloack as he ascends into the clouds. Around him are many cherubs and angels. Below him, the eleven apostles watch.
Father Christmas is dressed in a blue coat and a red hood. He is carrying a bag of bright toys over one shoulder and an evergreen under his right arm. A church is visible in the back left. Shining above his head is a star, with a cherub in each corner. "A Joyous Christmas" is printed along the bottom.
Father Christmas, dressed in a long green hooded coat, is seated in his sleigh. He is receiving a red book from a blonde-haired cherub, while another holds a toy horse. His sleigh is being pulled by two reindeer, one white and one brown, with bells around their necks. The background is a snowy field with a line of dark trees in the distance. "Frohliche Weihnachten!" is printed to the left, followed by a handwritten message.
