Original watercolour painting, created by Ian Scott Massie with artists' quality paint on specially made paper, signed by the artist
'I was inspired to paint this view of Oxford by a drawing made by the author J R R Tolkien - the man who created The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. Tolkien wrote letters for his children every Christmas in which Father Christmas sent them seasonal news, much of which involved his accident-prone Polar Bear. In one letter Tolkien draws Father Christmas’ sleigh gliding over the dark rooftops of Oxford. The image stuck in my mind waiting for the right time to be reworked.'
