Bedtime on Christmas Eve
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a heartwarming and nostalgic original artwork depicting the magical moment when two young children, a boy and a girl, prepare for sleep on this special night. The scene is set in the 1930s, as evidenced by the children's old-fashioned clothing and the decor of the room. The older boy, dressed in a knitted sweater and trousers, holds a candle aloft, casting a warm, flickering light on his little sister's bed. The little girl, wearing a red dress with a white collar and ribbon, is cuddling her black Scottie dog, telling it that it's time for bed too. The puppy wears a collar and bow, adding to the charming detail of the scene. The children's expressions are filled with anticipation and excitement, their eyes reflecting the twinkle of the candle's red flame. The artist has skillfully captured the profile of their faces in silhouette against the dark background, creating a beautiful contrast of light and shadow. The rhyme and verse of the Christmas season are reflected in the peaceful and harmonious scene, making it a timeless and cherished image. This original artwork is a beautiful reminder of the simple joys and traditions of Christmas past, and is a wonderful addition to any home or office decor. The image is a testament to the enduring bond between siblings and their beloved pets, and is sure to bring a smile to the face of anyone who sees it. Circa 1937.
