A lamb reflects the gentle mood of “Silent Night.” Dressed in its finery, a sleigh horse represents the carol “Jingle Bells.” Inspired by the lyrics of “Jolly Old Saint Nicholas,” the stamp art imagines a child’s hopeful monologue with Santa. For “Deck the Halls,” Christmas lights and holiday cookies set the mood. The stamp art is designed so the stamps are as graphically pleasing in a group as they are individually. Familiar lyrics from each song highlight the individual stamps. The artist first sketched the artwork in pencil and then rendered it as a digital illustration.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMany carols have roots in the music of the 15th and 16th centuries. In the 19th century — sometimes referred to as the Second Golden Age of Christmas Carols — many cherished carols were collected, arranged, or published, while many new songs that are today’s classics were first written.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003eChristmas Carols\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e stamps were issued as Forever® stamps in booklets of 20.
