A Chilean illustrator and commercial artist, Oscar Fabrès (1894-1960) studied art in Paris and settled in New York in 1940. Known for his fanciful and humorous illustrations, Fabrès produced a number of works including calendars, Christmas cards, note cards, stationery, magazine illustrations, advertisements, brochures, children's book illustrations, and more. His Christmas cards often feature wintry scenes of New York City and incorporate designs involving Santa Claus. The image on the card is a reproduction of an illustration by Fabrès of a Santa Claus riding through the park in a carriage full of presents.
