To me nothing says christmas like an Anton Pieck drawing. As a young girl I was in awe of his work. I remember my mother and me waiting in line at a book signing for hours just to say hello and shake his hand. And although I was very young, it made a lasting impression on me. Anton Pieck (b. 1895 – d. 1987) was a Dutch painter, artist and graphic artist. His works are noted for their nostalgic or fairy tale-like character and are widely popular, appearing regularly on christmas cards and calendars.
