The second of 3 ravishingly lovely works of sacred art I have purchased from this wonderful shop. This delightful nativity scene is completely imbued with an atmosphere sweetness and tenderness, simplicity and innocence, humility and gentleness, warmth and joy that draws in the heart of the viewer, making the Holy Ones depicted feel so approachable, and the believing soul feel so safe in their presence. This deep tenderness and humanity of this sacred art is quite unique, setting it apart from the pomposities of Western art. And it completely captivates my heart !
