EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting illustration by Leslie Wood brings to life the magical world of 'The Twelve Days of Christmas,' a beloved holiday tradition that dates back over 800 years. Depicting the familiar carol's lyrics, the print captures the essence of the season with each scene meticulously detailed and filled with warmth and wonder. The Twelve Days of Christmas, as described in the old English carol, begin on Christmas Day and last through the Epiphany on January 6th. In this illustration, Wood transports us back to a bygone era, where the days are filled with the joy and merriment of the holiday season. The first scene shows the giving of the partridge in a pear tree, a symbol of the giver's love and devotion. The following days bring a series of gifts, from turtle doves and calling birds to maids a-milking and lords a-leaping. Each scene is filled with vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and delightful characters that bring the carol's lyrics to life. The illustration also includes subtle historical references, such as the medieval-style clothing and architecture, adding an extra layer of depth and intrigue. Wood's masterful use of line, color, and composition creates a timeless piece that captures the essence of the holiday season and the magic of 'The Twelve Days of Christmas.' This beautiful print is a must-have for anyone looking to add a touch of holiday cheer to their home or office, and a perfect reminder of the rich history and traditions that make the holiday season so special.
