    This German advent calendar depicts an inviting ice skating scene with a rustic arched stone bridge.  A child on a sled urges her dog to pull her on the frozen pond.  Two other children hang a holly & ivy garland on the town's Christmas tree, while warm lights glow from the buildings and reflect off the pond amidst the snow-covered forest.  
    The tradition of the advent calendar dates back to 1851 in the Protestant parts of Germany. The first advent calendar with little doors was printed in the early 1900's and continues today.
    This calendar was printed in Germany, by the Korsch-Verlag Co., near Munich. Founded by Adolf Korsch Verlag in 1951.  Carefully selected motifs have been published every year, imaginatively down to the smallest detail, exclusively and lovingly illustrated by the artist's hand, accompanying you through the most beautiful time of the year.
    The detailed picture has 24 little doors to open. Each door has a little picture behind it. The tradition is to open one door each day from December 1 thru December 24. Children love to open a door a day as they count down to Christmas.
