EDITORS COMMENTS
In this lithograph from 1905, we are transported to a whimsical Christmas scene that is sure to bring joy and laughter. French President Emile Loubet takes on the role of Santa Claus, donning the iconic red suit and hat, but with a twist. Instead of delivering gifts to children, he pushes a wheelbarrow filled with presents for the adults. The image captures the essence of "Les Noels Des Grands Enfants" or "The Christmas for big kids" as it showcases a playful side of the holiday season often overlooked. As night falls, President Loubet navigates through the darkness with his colorful wheelbarrow illuminated by soft moonlight. This vintage illustration exudes nostalgia and charm, reminding us of simpler times when surprises were wrapped in vibrant paper and tied with bows. The intricate details in this litho transport us back to early 20th-century France, where traditions were cherished and celebrated. As we gaze upon this enchanting artwork, we can't help but imagine the delight on each adult's face as they receive their unexpected gifts from none other than their president himself. It serves as a reminder that no matter our age or stature in society, there is always room for childlike wonder during the festive season. This delightful print encapsulates the magic of Christmas Eve when even world leaders embrace their inner child and spread joy throughout their nation.
