The Christmas Book explores how Christmas has been pictured and celebrated around the world. More than 200 images bring together Nativity paintings, vintage holiday photographs, and familiar work by artists such as Beatrix Potter and Andy Warhol. Along the way, the book looks at the traditions that give the season its character, from decorating the tree and singing carols to the less familiar custom of leaving carrots in shoes.
