A signed drawing by Charles M. Schulz (1922-2000) featuring Snoopy, one of the most recognizable characters from the celebrated Peanuts comic strip. The composition depicts Snoopy wearing a winter cap beside a snowman, creating a charming seasonal scene characteristic of the gentle humor and visual economy associated with Schulz's work.

Executed in black line with restrained touches of green, orange, yellow, and pale blue, the drawing relies upon simple contours and carefully selected details to establish both character and narrative. Snoopy's elongated muzzle, rounded head, compact body, and understated expression reflect the highly economical graphic vocabulary that made Schulz's characters instantly recognizable across generations.

The work is signed "SCHULZ" at lower right. The autograph is executed in compact uppercase lettering with a slight rightward movement and rapid, confident construction. The characteristic formation of the initial S, closely organized central letters, and abbreviated terminal movement correspond with features commonly encountered in Schulz's signatures on drawings and Peanuts-related material. Its placement within the open lower-right area of the composition is visually natural and complements the drawing without interrupting the principal imagery.

As the creator of Peanuts, Schulz produced one of the most influential comic strips of the twentieth century. Signed drawings featuring Snoopy are particularly desirable because of the character's extraordinary international recognition and enduring importance within American comic and popular culture.
