Christmastime in the City | Art Print
"Busy sidewalks, city sidewalks dressed in holiday style!..” 🎶
"Home” at the holidays means two lifestyles: a warm, quiet house in the country, as well as the joy of being in a big city with all of its splendor and energy. Although the country is where it’s at for us these days, we wanted to create pieces that would also feel familiar and nostalgic for the city-loving friends of LL.
I painted this piece with the help of an inspiration photo of a 1960s downtown street scene. The tinsel trees on the light posts were something we had in my own hometown, and yes, I’ve already made up several storylines for the shoppers bustling the snowy streets! One of the best times I’ve ever had in Chicago was Christmas shopping downtown with my sister — a hot cocoa in hand, slushing through the sidewalks, looking at the beautifully decorated windows, and taking time to marvel at the huge magnificence that is the city. ♡

about our
Classic Art Prints
You'll be a collector in no time!
Since 2018, our Classic Art Prints have been printed on Optica Cotton Etch Paper – a natural white, thick (310 gsm), 100% cotton rag paper. It's made from high-quality cotton for a natural, archival base and a slight texture, similar to watercolor paper.
All prints and canvases at Lindsay Letters are printed using archival quality materials.
Unframed Art Prints ship pretty fast! You can expect it to take about three days in production (up to five days during holiday), and it will ship via USPS.
Here's more info about our holiday shipping times & order deadlines! ✧・ﾟ
Your Classic Art Print(s) will ship via USPS, rolled in a tube for safe travels.
Please be aware that we have two different vendors that we use to print our Art Prints.
Our Luxe Art Prints come from one vendor, and our Classic Art Prints come from another. They are both great options, but there are subtle differences. (Mainly, Luxe Art Prints are a brighter white smooth paper and Classic Art Prints are on an ivory, slightly textured paper. Additionally, smaller Luxe Art Prints ship flat while smaller Classic Art Prints ship rolled in a tube).
If your order includes a both Classic & Luxe style prints, those prints will be different. They will be printed on different paper, packaged differently, and ship at different times from different places. They will still look great grouped together on a wall, but if you're sending multiple prints as a gift, we recommend choosing prints of the same type, so that the user experience of receiving them is consistent. ☺
No product at Lindsay Letters is available for a return or exchange.
However, in the unfortunate event that something was damaged in shipping, please let us know! Sometimes these fragile unframed Art Prints are the subject of some wear and tear in shipment, and if your print experienced some unfortunate tumbles (dented corners, etc), please let us know (send a photo when you contact us) and we will make it right!
LL Philosophy ✧・ﾟ
home can heal
Investing in art is investing in you, and you are worth it.
At this point, we've all been through some stuff. Great stuff, hard stuff, in between stuff... And with all the things we have walked through in my own home, I am more convinced than ever that creating a home that inspires and delights you can also help you heal on a deep level. Personally, I think the most impactful way to set the tone for your space is starting with art as the anchor, and then building around it. Because let's be honest, no one ever refers to their couch as "meaningful."
