Father Christmas
Against a monochrome background, the colors of Father Christmas and the two children pop. Father Christmas stands to the left in a dark coat and white polka dot hat. There are toys at his belt; in his left arm he carries a tree and in his right, a smiling boy. The boy is dressed in green and a yellow cap and holds a trumpet and teddy bear. A girl in dark purple sits on a sled beside them to the right, smiling and holding a doll. In the background there are snowy trees, a river and a bridge. There are words in an unknown language in the upper right corner.
