EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting 1860s hand-colored woodcut, we are transported back in time to witness a magical moment on a rooftop. Santa Claus himself stands tall, carrying a beautifully decorated Christmas tree with great care. The vintage illustration captures the essence of American Christmas traditions, showcasing the joy and wonder that filled the air during this festive season. As Santa makes his way across the roof, his presence brings an air of excitement to the city below. The quaint village or town nestled beneath him is adorned with twinkling lights and decorations, creating a picturesque scene straight out of history. Against the backdrop of a starry sky, Santa's reindeer await patiently for their next journey into the night. This historic artwork evokes nostalgia as it reminds us of simpler times when toys were cherished treasures and holiday magic was palpable. It serves as a reminder that despite changing times and evolving traditions, some things remain constant - like Santa's timeless mission to deliver joy through gifts and presents. The inclusion of three wise men or three kings adds another layer of symbolism to this image. It hints at the deeper meaning behind Christmas celebrations – commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ. Preserved through time, this art print from North Wind Picture Archives allows us to appreciate both its artistic beauty and historical significance without commercial intent.
