Lovely rough, aged, painted corrugated metal - Maintenance of the full frame dimension seems appropriate & tilt w/classic diagonal adds interesting angle of view.

Gift for Santa

Wonderful.
I love the title - a universal theme.
A Christmas story, I read this year (by William L.M.H. Clark titled "Ole Petter and the Christmas Cow"), about a family's first Christmas in the United States after having immigrated from Norway - (circa 1887) & traditions they brought with them to their new homestead -

Here is a quotation about the gift the family would leave for Julenisse (pronounce the J as Y) The Norwegian Santa Claus.

"It would be very bad luck, indeed, to neglect Julenisse. For the family that left bowls of graut and cream and lefse, even beer, in the barn for this special visitor would have good fortune indeed. And, make no mistake, the Julenisse like all of the other nisse that lived in the neighborhood, was real. It was after all, the Julenisse's duty to protect the land and buildings. He kept the farm in order and, on Christmas Eve, came with a sack full of presents for the good children he found. "Tonight," Julius told his wide-eyed boys, "there will come a knock at the door and when you open it you will hear 'God Kveld' (Good Evening) and there will stand a little man in a red stocking cap and knee breeches and hand-knitted stockings and a Norwegian sweater and a homespun jacket."

Beautiful accuracy to a "star photo" - very good. I have seen 16x20 lithos from late 40's & 50's w/linen texture for this kind of a studio publicity image. A good condition original is quite expensive. This is a fun image, & I think good work recreating this style. The star's large and expressive signature is usually evident.
