1909 Red Cloaked Christmas Witch by de Yongh Postcard (B)

This enchanting 1909 artist-signed Christmas postcard by John de Yongh captures the cozy magic of a winter’s day through the eyes of a child. A young girl, wrapped snugly in a red hooded cloak speckled with snowflakes, stands gently smiling amid a quiet snowfall. She cradles a small Christmas tree in one arm and a greeting card reading “Merry Christmas” in the other, as if delivering joy straight from the heart.

Set against a soft green, snowy backdrop, the scene radiates innocence and holiday warmth. The gold-gilded border adds a final touch of elegance to this already charming composition, making it a fine example of early 20th-century holiday artistry.
