Figurative illustration of people arriving at a church by Charles Kinghan (American, 1895-1984). The church is rendered with exquisite detail, typical of Kinghan's style. People are walking towards an ornate church, dressed in heavy winter clothes. A few people are arriving by a horse-drawn sleigh. The winter scene contrasts nicely with the vivid blue sky. A slightly modified version of this illustration was used as the cover illustration (see image) for the February 23, 1952 edition of Collier's magazine (magazine is not included).
