Description
English: Lewis Miller’s drawing showing Christmas tree

The drawing appears to depict the family of blue dyer Seifert with their Christmas tree in 1809.
Artist Lewis Miller (1796-1882)
It is unknown when he drew the picture, while possibly not the earliest drawing of a Christmas tree in the U.S., the drawing with the Christmas tree may have been the earliest to have been drawn by an eyewitnesses account.
