| The Advent calendar. |
As I do at this time of year I passed by Fortnum and Mason which has
been decorating its windows at Christmas for over three hundred years and
continues to present the most imaginative windows in London. The theme in 2017 is ‘Together We’re
Merrier’.
To illustrate this
message, Fortnum’s has brought together a cast of fanciful characters starring
in a narrative of Christmas moments across the eight windows of its Piccadilly
facade, from the opening of an advent calendar to the dressing of the tree and
the popping of the champagne cork.
 |
Animals and inanimate objects come to life,
all working together to make Christmas happen. |
 |
| The wolf regales the sheep with song. |
 |
| The endless feast. |
 |
| The popping of the cork. |
 |
| A cosy tale by the fireside. |
 |
An elephant, a lion and an ostrich deliver hampers
via rocket ship to the ends of the earth. |
