The National Gallery has an enormous collection of “Christmas art,” virtually all of which is religious in nature. Their collection of non-religious Christmas art is somewhat smaller; of the 149 pieces of Christmas art I found in the NGA’s online collection, only 2 of them are secular. And this is one of them.
Detail images of this work are available on the NGA web site.
