Advent calendar full of art

Advent calendar full of art

Barbusse Buro Illustration created a truly one of a kind Advent calendar for this year’s holiday season.

Written by: Márk Szolomayer

We could already lit the first candle of our Advent wreath three days ago, which means that we are officially at the finish line of Christmas preparations. I personally used to be a big fan of Advent calendars and getting a surprise treat every day as a kid, but over the past few years I haven’t seen a single calendar that showed something new or something extra.

Luckily, this won’t be a problem this year, because I found the one below. On the product simply called “the super Advent calendar”, each of the 24 days offers another work of art in Barbusse style, including Frida Kahlo painting her eyebrows or Myron’s Discobolus throwing a beer cap towards Munch’s Scream, amongst others.

Perhaps the funniest of all is the grinning van Gogh wearing sunglasses. But this is just the beginning, I’ll let the pictures tell you the rest.

The calendar is a joint project of Le Chocolate des Francais and Barbusse Buro. For more special chocolates with fine-looking packaging, visit the website of Le Chocolate des Francais!
