In the first picture a farmer has set two corn shocks beside his house to help wildlife through the winter. A wreath hangs by the door, a Christmas tree shows in the window, and two late-leaving mallards glide down to feed.4
The second is its companion: a wreath and a shovel by the front door, a distant church, corn in two open cribs, and a pair of Canada geese stopping by.5

How to identify it
Tell the two apart by the birds: mallards in the first, Canada geese in the second.45
The 1985 print was not a numbered edition. The art center describes it as a signed open edition, hand-signed by Redlin, and in 2013 it offered remaining copies from that original printing as its Christmas release. Their image measures 22 × 14 inches.4
The 2014 Christmas edition of The Sharing Season II is a different object: 2,014 numbered prints, not signed, with a 32 × 18½ inch image and a printed remarque of two geese in flight in the lower left margin.5
The Encore II prints of both, with an 18 × 10½ inch image, are unsigned, unnumbered open editions.45
Terry Redlin prints in general
The Redlin Art Center defines a limited edition as a reproduction that is signed and sequentially numbered by the artist. The signature is usually in one of the lower corners, beside a number that looks like a fraction: the print’s own number over the size of the edition.6
Many Redlin prints are open editions, and these are neither signed nor numbered. The art center describes the Encore and Encore II prints (image 18 × 10½ inches), the Elite prints (24 × 14 inches) and the Museum Canvas (39¾ × 23 inches) that way. Some of them come with a certificate of authenticity, so a certificate does not by itself make a print a limited edition.789
He stopped signing prints when he retired in June 2007. The holiday limited editions issued after that are numbered but not signed: Winter Wonderland in 2007 (2,007 prints) and The Sharing Season II in 2014 (2,014 prints). Each has a printed remarque in the lower left margin.10115
