Back just over a hundred years for this festive filly with her load of mistletoe by Austrian artist Raphael Kirchner (1876-1917). Kirchner produced some of the earliest pin up paintings, many of which were produced as postcards and were popular with troops during the Great War. He was a direct influence on Alberto Vargas who went on to produce famous pinups for Esquire and Playboy.
