Description
Christmas celebrated by people playing instruments, eating amd drinking a man with white hair and a long white beard sitting watching a small man stirring punch in a bowl. Christmas is an annual commemoration of the birth of Jesus Christ and a widely observed cultural holiday, celebrated on December 25 by billions of people around the world. A feast central to the Christian liturgical year, it closes the Advent season and initiates the twelve days of Christmastide, which ends after the twelfth night. Christmas is a civil holiday in many of the world's nations, is celebrated by an increasing number of non-Christians, and is an integral part of the Christmas and holiday season. Engraving by T. Hollis after Robert William Buss.
