Thanks for the background! For those who don’t want to click:

This claim is mostly false. The photograph was actually part of an artwork by Yoshio Itagaki in 2005, which in itself is a commentary satirizing the urban legend of a Japanese department store misinterpreting Christmas. The photograph has been used out of context and spread alongside the claim it aimed to critique.

Basically a Japanese artist creating satire I guess?
