Santa, an angel and a deer share the frame here, a pairing more typical of early twentieth-century greeting cards than of the family photographs and street scenes that usually fill a Christmas board. Holiday postcards like this one were produced in large numbers in the decades around 1900 and into the 1920s, when sending a card had become a common way to wish friends and relatives well at the end of the year. Sentimental imagery of this kind, with its soft colors and gentle figures, reflected a taste for comfort and goodwill that the cards were meant to carry across the post. The title's word "peaceful" points to the message the design aimed for.
