Father Christmas at Train Stop

Title

Father Christmas at Train Stop

Description

Father Christmas is dressed in a rich burgundy coat and hat, with a satchel on his left side and a full bag and basket at his feet. He is handing a present to one of three children. The children are sumptuously dressed. One girl is in a red cap and cape, the other in gold. The third child, a little boy, is in blue. Behind the figures, a green train is preparing to depart the station. Faces peak out of the windows, and one man with a lantern is standing next to the train. The card reads "A Happy Christmas" in the bottom right.
