EDITORS COMMENTS
Old Father Christmas: A Traditional English Folklore Scene of Christmas Cheer with the Yule Log, c. 1848 Old Father Christmas, a cherished figure of English folklore, is depicted in this illustration from the 1840s. The jolly old man is shown carrying a wassail bowl, a symbol of festive cheer and communal drinking, in one hand, while the other hand holds his classic staff. The Yule Log, an essential element of ancient winter solstice celebrations, is balanced on his back. The log, believed to bring good fortune and ward off evil spirits, is adorned with holly and ivy, further emphasizing the connection between Christmas and the natural world. The Old Father Christmas figure wears a wreath of holly on his head, symbolizing the everlasting cycle of life and renewal. His face, filled with warmth and merriment, is greeted with the lines of the traditional English poem, "What, Father Christmas! Here again? With yule log on your back, and mighty store of racy things well stuffed within your pack. Hail, cheerer! Blessed be your face, great king of frost and cold! For, notwithstanding all your beard, you're only twelve months old." This illustration, from the Illustrated London News Ltd/Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the rich and vibrant folkloric traditions of Old Father Christmas and the Yule Log during the Christmas season in England during the 1840s.
