BEVERLY DOOLITTLE "CHRISTMAS DAY- GIVE OR TAKE A WEEK" This is a SOLD-OUT Limited Edition Print that was done in 1983 by BEV DOOLITTLE titled "CHRISTMAS DAY GIVE OR TAKE A WEEK". The print image size is 15 1/2” X 15 1/2”. “After the giant Sequoias were established as a National Park in 1890, Congress also designated the "General Grant" tree as the nation's Christmas tree. How appropriate with the cinnamon-red bark and the "Christmas" green foliage against a backdrop of "snow-white" snow. As the "General Grant" tree doesn't have a very good cave, this one was created from imagination. This mountain man needs to find shelter, peace and warmth on Christmas day. He has unloaded his horse, gathered wood, made a fire and has rigged up a makeshift cooking stick for his meal of local game bird. He has even taken the time to cut down a small tree and decorate it with his meager possessions - a locket, a pocket watch, an Indian necklace and a mirror. As his calendar may not be accurate, this is "Christmas Day, Give or Take a Week." - Bev Doolittle Signed and numbered by artist Print #904 out of 4581 Water spot on right edge, outside of where you would mat it.
