Carola Nativity Gallery: March 2010

Monday, March 1, 2010. A Sad Journey In Elegant Figures. The nativity story ended with a sad journey for the Family as they left Bethlehem for points south to Egypt. Goebel of Germany produced a series of figurines designed by Janet Robson which depicts that journey. The modelling is elegant and serene. The characters are each dressed in blue and white garments.

Thursday, December 31, 2009. May His Love Guide All. We Do and Say in the New Year! Links to this post. Monday, December 28, 2009. Lovely Vintage Spanish Plate. It seems that during the 1970’s there was much production of nativity themed items such as porcelain plates. Many of my annual nativity collector’s plates date from the 1970’s. Today’s subject is a lovely example of this. The soft blue border frames the raised figures on the plate. The clothing has great patterned detail. Links to this post.
