“Holly Berries” – Hope and Love
2010年 十一月月 27日 - 2011年 二月月 13日
This year’s Christmas exhibition is dedicated to the holly. Once revered by the Germanic tribes and the Celts, this evergreen plant with its poisonous red berries has been the most popular Christmas motif in Great Britain and North America for hundreds of years.
It was highly valued as a useful and protective plant for many centuries. Its berries were used to make medicines, its branches served to ward off many evil spirits.
