Nutcracker in Minimal Christmas Scene

A wide horizontal Christmas scene features a single nutcracker figure standing on the left third of the frame. The nutcracker wears a deep red uniform with green accents, gold buttons, and a simple black hat, all rendered with clean three dimensional shapes. The background is a rich dark red that gradually deepens toward the right side, adding depth while staying pattern free. Soft warm light from the right side illuminates the front of the nutcracker and creates a gentle shadow stretching to the left. The right two thirds of the image remain uncluttered, forming generous gradient copy space suitable for cards or hero banners. The design feels classic and festive while remaining minimalist with only one main decorative subject.
