Few Christmas customs are as tender as a child's letter to Santa Claus, and this picture, titled *A Letter for Santa Claus*, makes that small ritual its subject. The practice of writing wishes to Saint Nicholas or Santa Claus grew popular in the United States and Europe during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, as families encouraged children to put their hopes on paper. Images of this kind often carried a gentle sentiment, reminding viewers that the season was about childhood faith as much as gifts. Holiday scenes like this were widely reproduced on cards and magazine covers.
