-Seated Santa Claus- still bank c. 20th century

This ceramic still bank, "Seated Santa Claus" is a charming example of kitsch Americana from the 20th century. The anonymous artist captures a whimsical and jolly Santa Claus in a seated position, complete with a white beard, a red suit, and black boots. The bank serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of Santa Claus imagery during the holiday season. This small figurine, on display at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, is a testament to the enduring popularity of Santa Claus and Christmas traditions.
