About the Author
Internationally acclaimed artist Sulamith Wulfing was born in 1901 in Wuppertal-Elberfeld, Germany and had her first exhibition of paintings there in 1923. During WWII, she was forced to flee the Nazis with her son and mother, and the family experienced a number of tragic events before they were reunited at Christmas 1945. (She was convinced that only the spiritual support of her teacher, Jiddu Krishnamurti, kept her from the concentration camps.) The years after the war were filled with intense artistic activity and publishing. She died in March 1989 at the age of 88.

This review is from: Sulamith Wulfing Holiday Card Box (Christmas) (Cards)
This exquisite collection of Sulamith Wulfing cards contains six of her most popular Christmas images (no text), each reproduced twice for a total of twelve cards. The images are "Wonder in Snow" (a baby asleep inside of a purple crocus),"Christmas Tree" (two lovers embracing under a tree decorated with silver ornaments), "The Angel of Advent" (two angel-figures lighting candles), "The Great Ball" (two children with outsize Christmas ornaments and strange little gnomes), "Holiday Swing" (a girl sits in a swing made of outsize Christmas ornaments), and "Crown of Light" ( a girl wearing a crown of candles).
All of the pictures are done in muted aurora-like colors on glossy stock and the decorative motif is continued on the back of each card: a peacock's feather, silver ornaments, feathers, or snowflakes. Really, these are some of the most beautiful Christmas cards I've ever seen, and they come in a sturdy cardboard box decorated with the "Large Ball" image. Even if I do send out the cards, I'll still have box to keep my miniature Christmas ornaments in. The paintings of Sulamith Wülfing capture the innocence and eerie Northern beauty of this most pagan of Christian holidays.

This review is from: Sulamith Wulfing Holiday Card Box (Christmas) (Cards)
For anyone wanting greetings cards with a difference buy these, they are excellent quality, not only from the production but the artworks themselves. Wulfing was a very special person who was very connected with the world of fairies and fairy-tales. As an artist/draughtsman she is unequalled and the colours are exquisitely applied. We gave boxes of these away for christmas presents to friends and will do so next year as well. Highly recommended
