An illustration for the story 'The Goat and the Stars' by H.E.Bates. The story is about the meaning of true sacrifice and the commercialisation of Christmas. This illustration depicts the moment after the Church has rejected his Christmas gift of the goat; the boy is left with a mingled emotion of sadness and realisation.
