Cameron appears alongside a Christmas tree in a picture dated December 15, 2022, placing it in the middle of the holiday decorating season. The record does not say where the scene was taken or what the occasion was, so the room and the tree are open to the viewer's reading. Setting up an evergreen in the home before Christmas became a widespread American custom in the nineteenth century, and images like this one preserve a ritual that has changed little since then.
