Early depictions show Santa Claus in yellow, green, even stars and stripes. So why do we always see jolly old Saint Nick dressed in red?
Christmas lights sparkle in every color as they line trees and homes. But the man coming down our chimney sports only one shade.
Clement Clarke Moore helped change that image. In 1823, he published a poem known today as"'Twas the Night Before Christmas." An 1863 depiction on the cover of Harper's Weekly showed Santa in stars and stripes. The artist, Thomas Nast, supported the Union during the Civil War. Finally, in 1881, Santa appears entirely dressed in his famous red suit; this image was another from Nast, but this uniform wasn't the uniform on all Santas yet.But red eventually won out.
