Printemps 2011 - Noël en Rouge


The red laquer chest and le dragon rouge captivate les flaneurs
in front of this window at Printemps.
The animated windows are spectacular but the genius of this still-life holds its own!

To the right of this shot is an exotic crested bird 
which I will post once I can "name" it.

bon weekend!

    Que de rouge! Que de rouge! I prefer this display to the mini-Karl Lagerfeld prancing around ;-) Great photo Genie. Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)

    They do a good job in Paris with the shop windows. This one looks great.

    Some day I will have to go and see the Christmas windows ... until then I can enjoy them through your fantastic photos. The red, the shimmer, the shine just brightened my day!

    Love the dragon, but don't understand the connection to Christmas.

    Don't if it says "Christmas" exactly—on the other hand, maybe my tree could use a dragon or two! I love it, Genie.

    Cool. Wouldn't you love to be a window dresser? Getting paid to act out your fantasies with window displays?
