The Nativity scene at home was made a few days ago. Nothing similar to this amazing baroque Nativity scene on display at the National Museum of Ancient Art. I love the details - not only the human figures, but all the surrounding aspects, architecture, vegetation, nature. Everytime i visit the museum i spend a little while searching for nem aspects, which always apear! Merry Christmas everyone!
