Eva's Christmas tree

Title

Eva's Christmas tree

Description

Sepia-toned image of a Christmas tree with tinsel, various ornaments, and dolls at the base. The basic ornaments are very similar to ones that can be found today, though perhaps not the feathered fan hanging upside down on the image-left side of the tree. Note the flocked wallpaper with its vegetation design, and the elaborate rug on the floor; the rug's designs indicate that it is most likely a Turkomen rug, from Central Asia, rather than an 'Oriental' rug from China.
