Father Christmas
A tall blonde-haired angel in white with a flower crown is carrying toys in its arms. A much shorter Father Christmas stands behind is, carrying a walking stick, lantern, and tree on his back. There are snow-covered bare trees and branches by them; a crow is perched on one and a rabbit among the others. The bottom reads "Christmas Greetings."
