"A Christmas Party" (also known as "Winter in the Country: A Christmas Party") is an oil painting by American artist George Henry Durrie, created in 1861. The work is one of Durrie's most famous paintings and is exemplary of his genre scenes depicting rural American life in the mid-19th century. Durrie, who lived from 1820 to 1863, was known for his winter landscapes that often featured New England farmhouses and became particularly popular when reproduced as lithographic prints by Currier and Ives.

The painting "A Christmas Party" captures a quintessentially American scene of a family gathering during the holiday season. It portrays a snowy evening with a group of people arriving at a country home, warmly lit from within, suggesting the cozy festivities taking place inside. The composition is balanced with a sense of tranquility and the anticipation of a joyous social event, embodying the spirit of the Christmas holiday.

Durrie's attention to detail in the depiction of the architecture, the snow-laden trees, and the figures conveys a sense of realism while also evoking a nostalgic charm. The painting's popularity during Durrie's time and its continued recognition today can be attributed to its embodiment of an idealized rural Americana, particularly resonant during the holiday season.

"A Christmas Party" is not only a testament to Durrie's skill as a painter but also serves as a historical document of American culture and tradition in the pre-Civil War era. The work is held in high regard and can be found in the collection of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in Richmond, Virginia, allowing viewers to appreciate this classic example of American genre painting and its representation of 19th-century holiday celebrations.
