The Thomas Nast Home, also known as Villa Fontana, is a historic house on MacCulloch Avenue in Morristown, Morris County, New Jersey, United States. Built in 1860–1861, it was the home of political cartoonist Thomas Nast (1840–1902) from 1871 until shortly before his death. Nast is best known for his caricatures, published in Harpers Weekly, in which he created or popularized now-iconic images, including typical American depictions of Santa Claus, the Democratic Donkey, and the Republican Elephant. The house was named a National Historic Landmark in 1964 and placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1966.
