VITEC is a brilliant, Berkshire-based, Impressionist painter of birds and wildlife. His technically-masterful and dazzlingly poetic portraits of the Christmas robin have contributed mightily to efforts to keep this holiday tradition alive in our times.

The Green Man loves this Victorian print about the Golden Rule. Frame it, but use it at Christmastide only to keep it special. Decorate with pine boughs, a bit of holly, a sprig of juniper with berries, and a fir cone!
