Chromogenic print in colors on Fujicolor paper - Hand-signed and dated (verso) // Cindy Sherman’s Mrs. Claus (1990) is a vibrant C-print that exemplifies the artist’s exploration of identity and persona through staged photography. In this piece, Sherman portrays a version of Mrs. Claus, sitting in a festive, yet slightly unsettling setting. Dressed in traditional holiday attire with a white wig and a red apron, she holds a plate of broken cookies, giving the image an odd, humorous twist. Sherman’s makeup and exaggerated expressions challenge the typical portrayal of holiday icons, transforming Mrs. Claus into a complex character with a blend of satire and nostalgia. The warm, saturated colors enhance the festive yet eerie atmosphere, a hallmark of Sherman’s style.
