This color poster was made as the Christmas number of *Success*, a New York magazine known for its upbeat articles on self-improvement and getting ahead. It was the work of Joseph Christian Leyendecker, then in his twenties and still early in a career that would make him one of the best-known American illustrators of the next several decades. Its bright color and simple, decorative composition suit both the holiday season and the magazine's hopeful message.
