Awaiting the Christmas Visitor

Awaiting the Christmas Visitor by Charles Marchant Stevenson (1971). Dream-like heightened awareness balances breathless anticipation and the deep comfort of home. Arnold Borley is the expected guest. With its reflections of a starry winter sky and full moon, rich golds and oranges, deep blues and purples, this is one of Charles Marchant Stevenson's most beloved images.
