Favorite Depiction of Santa Claus

idgaf if it's marketing, Santa Claus with polar bears is the greatest:

@Ikagura - ::thumbsupwario Well, yeah, but...
Actually, the basis is the historical figure of Saint Nicholas (San Nicola, here in Italy), who was a bishop dressed in red, and also the symbolism of the color itself for the Christmas holidays (which is linked to pagan figures and elements like winter berries and "Christmas Star" plants).
Like said, the inspiration comes from Saint Nicholas, a 4th-century bishop who was known for his generosity, and wore red bishop's robes (symbol of royalty and charity)

Oh, so in a way he was red (St Nicola) then green in some regions then red again with Coca Cola's campaign ads.

Personally I would've gone for Red with golden parts.

I like this thread because I'm learning about other versions of the character.

Technically not Santa but I love Nights being someone bringing gifts in people's dreams (I'm assuming it's basically the in-universe equivalent of santa in this world):

The depiction of Santa in the Klaus movie is one of my favorites, in this version is just a grumpy human in the forest with no magic or superpowers but his heart and kindness becomes a inspiration for his friends and later he is the origin of the tradition of giving gifts to the childrens around the world at Christmas.

Another favorite depiction mine is the one in Daze Before Christmas, i just love how funny and silly he looks in this game
 
@Ikagura - Red with golden parts... Yeah, I would love it too! ::heart
As well as I really loved Nights into Dreams ::heart
