His holly-crowned, fur-coated Santa appeared across popular illustrations, and this scene of Santa caught by a hugging child continues that warm, domestic vision of the character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;\"\u003eWhat does this Thomas Nast scene actually show?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe image shows a bearded Santa Claus in a fur-trimmed coat, wide belt and holly-sprig crown at a metal bed, seen from behind as he turns his head. A curly-haired child in a nightgown kneels and hugs him. A stocking hangs nearby and a toy cart and stick sit within reach.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;\"\u003eWhat technique was used to create this artwork?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a pen-and-ink illustration reproduced in monochrome. Nast built form and deep shadow through dense cross-hatching in black ink on cream paper, giving the dim night bedroom heavy contrast. The lettering CAUGHT! sits in the lower margin below the picture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-weight:700;\"\u003eIs this an original antique print or a reproduction?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a giclée reproduction of a public-domain 1892 Thomas Nast Santa Claus illustration, not an antique sheet. It is printed on 230GSM archival matte paper in ten sizes and ships rolled in a crush-resistant tube, so you get faithful detail without handling a fragile original.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Haus of Prints","offers":[{"title":"16x20","offer_id":48954385400000,"sku":"thomas-nast-caught-santa-claus-1892-wall-art-16x20","price":69.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5x7","offer_id":48954385301696,"sku":"thomas-nast-caught-santa-claus-1892-wall-art-5x7","price":34.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8x10","offer_id":48954385334464,"sku":"thomas-nast-caught-santa-claus-1892-wall-art-8x10","price":54.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11x14","offer_id":48954385367232,"sku":"thomas-nast-caught-santa-claus-1892-wall-art-11x14","price":64.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"A3","offer_id":48954385432768,"sku":"thomas-nast-caught-santa-claus-1892-wall-art-A3","price":69.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"18x24","offer_id":48954385465536,"sku":"thomas-nast-caught-santa-claus-1892-wall-art-18x24","price":84.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20x25","offer_id":48954385498304,"sku":"thomas-nast-caught-santa-claus-1892-wall-art-20x25","price":89.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24x30","offer_id":48954385531072,"sku":"thomas-nast-caught-santa-claus-1892-wall-art-24x30","price":99.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"24x36","offer_id":48954385563840,"sku":"thomas-nast-caught-santa-claus-1892-wall-art-24x36","price":115.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"32x40","offer_id":48954385596608,"sku":"thomas-nast-caught-santa-claus-1892-wall-art-32x40","price":129.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/1758\/3296\/files\/thomas-nast-caught-santa-claus-1892-wall-art-framed-statement.webp?v=1788439694","url":"https:\/\/hausofprints.com\/products\/thomas-nast-caught-santa-claus-1892-wall-art","provider":"Haus of Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
