A Christmas stocking is displayed vertically, hanging on a light-colored wooden slat structure

A Christmas stocking is displayed vertically, hanging on a light-colored wooden slat structure. The stocking features a light brown, coarse-weave fabric body adorned with white embroidered snowflakes. Its cuff is bright red with the phrase "Merry Xmas" embroidered in white script. A red fabric loop for hanging is visible at the top. An embroidered elf figure is centrally located on the stocking's main body, depicted with a light-toned face, rosy cheeks, a red smile, and black dot eyes. The elf wears a green and red striped hat with a red polka-dot band and a yellow pom-pom. Its attire consists of a glittery green tunic with white buttons and a red ruffled collar. Two fabric legs, striped red and white, dangle from the bottom of the elf, terminating in black, pointed elf shoes with white fluffy trim. Above the stocking, shiny red tinsel is draped across the wooden slats. A bright blue surface is visible in the background, contrasting with the wooden structure and the stocking. The scene is located in Vendin-le-Vieil, France.
