Outline drawing of the Nutcracker soldier with a sword facing the Mouse King wearing a crown

About this picture

This scene comes straight from The Nutcracker: the toy soldier, in his tall hat and buttoned jacket, raises his wooden sword to face the Mouse King. The Mouse King wears a spiky crown and a flowing cape and looks ready for battle. The Nutcracker's jacket buttons are linked so one tap colors them all, and the two halves of his belt fill together too.
