A few more nativities from the Exhibition being held at
the President’s Palace in Valletta. The first one is one of my favorites as it
shows a very intimate moment between Mary and her baby as she nurses him in her
humble home, probably somewhere in Egypt, as they spent 2 years as refugees,
escaping from Herod’s wrath. The next one is the Presentation at the temple, as
Simeon welcomes them and blesses the child Jesus after he is circumcised. A Nativity in a wintry setting gives us an insight into what it would have been like if Jesus was born in Sweden or Mongolia or Canada. The
last one is another modern setting of a nativity.
