Something in the window caught our attention.
We investigated further and saw more clues--green apples, a bowler hat, a pipe,a crescent moon and a cloudy blue sky.
It turns out that Delvaux has created a line of products based on René Magritte's artwork. (Magritte was a logical choice since he is one of Belgium's most famous artists.)
The products incorporate images and symbols from Magritte's paintings, like the famous Magritte painting pictured below.
Le fils de l'homme (The Son of Man) by René Magritte (1964) |
It is another example of art and fashion colliding.
P.S. In another window of Delvaux, we spotted a large birthday cake celebrating the 190 year anniversary of Delvaux's founding. Atop the cake is manneken pis doing his thing on the cake.
