Fortnum and Mason


If you haven't seen the Christmas scheme here at Fortnum and Mason, you are missing an extraordinary scheme.  Three dimensional paintings from the collections at the National Gallery have been exquisitely re-produced and placed within their windows.  Paintings originally produced by great masters such as Claesz, Pissaro and Hobbema have been re-produced with such incredible attention to detail that even from the images here its difficult to tell whether they are paintings or three dimensional images of the originals.  If you want to be wowed do go and check out the rest of this scheme.  Along the side windows is an incredible banqueting installation with so much product its hard to know where to look.  Amazing stuff.
