Christmas Tree
A Christmas tree stands in the corner of a living room furnished with a tufted sofa, left, and harp floor lamp. On the far right is a desk or writing table. In front of the tree is a toy train set and a village of small houses. There is a large doll house at the rear, partially obscured by a toy crib holding two large baby dolls. A Santa Claus figure is under the tree, which is decorated with ornaments, tinsel garland, and short lengths of glass bead garland. |
