Christmas Angels by P. Buckley Moss

Content & Subject

Christmas Angels is a rare, signed and numbered limited edition lithograph by P. Buckley Moss, beautifully blending themes from her Christmas Collection and Angel Collection. This enchanting scene depicts a child seated peacefully by a glowing Christmas tree, holding a beloved doll while a toy train circles nearby. Above, three graceful angels hover among the branches, their delicate wings shimmering as they spread light and joy over the holiday setting.

The imagery captures the magic of Christmas—the innocence of a child at play, the warmth of traditions, and the spiritual presence of angels watching over. With a star shining brightly atop the tree, the composition feels both heavenly and homely, offering a sense of comfort, celebration, and peace.

Style & Technique

Created in Moss’s signature folk art style, the lithograph uses soft blues, greens, and gentle pastels to evoke a wintry glow. The Christmas tree, adorned with garlands and ornaments, stands tall as the centerpiece, while the angels add a luminous, ethereal quality to the scene. The circular framing enhances the timeless feel, as if the viewer is peeking into a cherished Christmas memory preserved in snow and light.

Moss’s careful linework and subtle color palette capture both detail and simplicity—hallmarks of her artistry. The toy train, a symbol of nostalgia and holiday tradition, grounds the scene in warmth and familiarity.

Mood & Inspiration

The mood of Christmas Angels is peaceful, magical, and reverent. It radiates the quiet joy of Christmas morning, the delight of childhood traditions, and the spiritual comfort of angelic guardianship. Moss often drew inspiration from both her strong Christian faith and her deep appreciation for the wonder of children, weaving these themes seamlessly into holiday artworks that evoke both devotion and joy.

This piece belongs to Moss’s Christmas Collection, which has long been treasured by collectors, and her Angel Collection, which celebrates heavenly beings as protectors and symbols of light. Together, these themes make Christmas Angels a particularly meaningful addition to any collection.
