St. Nicholas was a monthly illustrated magazine serial for children, edited by Mary Mapes Dodge and published in New York by Scribner in 1873. Its pictures are loose pen-and-ink and wash drawings with dark masses, sketched figures, and a vignette-like staging of scenes, offering designers examples of lively nineteenth-century line work for children's storytelling.
