Father Christmas Feeds Bird
Title
Father Christmas Feeds Bird
Description
Father Christmas is dressed in a long gold robe with a brown hat; his beard reaches past his waist. On his back is a basket with a bag ballooning over the top; he caries another satchel of toys at his left side, which faces the viewer. From his right hand dangles a package and chain. The background is faded tan-white, with a sketched outline of a door. At his feet a robin is singing, and he appears to be feeding it. "Frohliche Weihnachten!" is printed between his feet and the bird, and there is handwriting at the bottom of the card.
