A woman in a white fur hat and large fur muff is shown in profile against a dark oval, surrounded by holly sprigs and a snowy woodland scene. The card pairs the wintry portrait with a printed holiday verse wishing bright days in the coming year. Such illustrated Christmas greetings were widely exchanged in the early 20th century.
