Rendered in fine chromolithographic detail, this Victorian-era die-cut greeting card depicts a young child dressed in an elegant cream-colored coat and matching cap, standing on a snowy base. The child holds a small evergreen sprig in one hand and carries a brown satchel bag over one shoulder containing more greenery. Skis or evergreen branches are visible behind the child's shoulder.
