Description
English:

A black and white ink drawing of a jolly round Santa Claus holding a bag of presents. There is a fireplace mantle behind Santa Claus with stockings. Each stocking has the name of one of the Roosevelt children: Quentin, Archie, Ethel, Kermit, Ted Jr., Alice.

The political cartoonist Thomas Nast created this cartoon of Christmas in the White House in 1901. It depicts Santa Claus placing presents in the Roosevelt children's stockings. The inscription reads: "New life in the old house. Don't know when I've felt so at home here." The cartoon celebrated the American public's excitement regarding the return of a young family to the White House.
