Title

Father Christmas and Children at Well

Description

The card's scene is monochrome except for the pink and green clothing of the little girls and doll that are pictured. Father Christmas is drawing water with a small barrel from a brick well. He is dressed in a dark coat and hat. Two little girls are with him; one stands on the rim of the well, wearing a pink dress and cap. The other little girl is dressed in mint green, standing on the opposite side. Along the rim of the well is a pair of wooden clogs as well as jewelry. At the bottom of the well, a large girl's doll is dressed in mint green, along with a toy cow and pig. "Joyeaux Noel" is printed in the upper right corner.
