Neapolitan presepio in Divine Mercy church, Naxxar, Malta |
I share again with you a few more decorations I come across in our small island, preparing itself for this festive season. Simplicity, spirituality, and sensitivity are the qualities that highlight most of the decorations. The trees, stars and glittering lights are becoming more prominent, but the center of attraction remains baby Jesus, who will be displayed in presepios, nativities, and especially in churches. Neapolitan nativities are also becoming more common with elaborate statues, draped in real clothes and with ethnic backgrounds.
