Description

The main scene is portrayed as if being viewed through a keyhole. There, a family decorates for Christmas, In the background, a woman watches the action. A boy with his back to the viewer places decorations on a Christmas tree, while a mature woman hangs a garland. In the front of the scene, a girl in a white nightgown holds a doll in pink. Around the keyhole view, on the right side, is Santa Claus carrying toys. To the left are more toys, a bag, and houses in the background. "A Merry Christmas" is printed at the bottom.
