Santa (One of Eight Virgins) Front View c. 1937

"Santa (One of Eight Virgins) Front View" is a watercolor painting created by American artist Majel G. Claflin in 1937. The painting depicts a figure in a stylized, almost theatrical, manner, wearing a white headdress, a blue and green patterned skirt, and a brown necklace. The figure's hands are clasped together in front of their chest, and they appear to be looking down. The painting is characterized by its simple yet striking composition and its use of bold, vibrant colors. Claflin was known for her whimsical and decorative style, often creating works inspired by religious themes and folklore. This artwork is one of eight in a series that were likely part of a larger project or installation.
