In this vibrant colour lithograph, we are transported to a snowy countryside where two sisters, dressed in their finest winter attire, engage in a playful game of ball. The jovial atmosphere is enhanced by the presence of their father, who watches with amusement as his daughters enjoy themselves. This print is part of a series of humorous Christmas drawings created by Arthur Hopkins from sketches by Emmie Fiddian. Published in The Graphic Christmas Number in 1889, these illustrations aimed to bring joy and entertainment during the festive season. The composition exudes nostalgia for simpler times when families gathered together for holiday celebrations. It evokes memories of lively parties and parlor games that were popular during this period. One can almost hear the sound of cheerful chatter and joyful cries echoing through the snow-covered landscape.

This artwork serves as an invitation to immerse ourselves in laughter-filled moments with loved ones while cherishing traditions passed down through generations.
