In this regard, the two figurines of the child shepherd boy and the peasant girl are particularly interesting, although the angel with the incense-burner, attributed to Giuseppe Sammartino, is apparently the most valuable piece of the set.<br \/>\nThe Nativity scene is here set among the ruins of a classical architecture \u2013 emphasised by the bust of an ancient philosopher in a clipeus &#8211; in order to make more evident, in a symbolic way, that, for as much as Christianity is rooted in pagan culture, this has been overcome.<br \/>\nThe ecstatic style of the composition and the refined and eloquent gestures of the characters, evoking the elegiac theatre, refer to the themes of eighteenth-century Neapolitan painting and in particular to Francesco De Mura.<br \/>\nThe nativity scene was originally in the Chapel of San Giuseppe of the Church of the Certosa of San Martino.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>18 December 2024 \u2013 6 January 2025<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2700,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_just_events_all_day":false,"_just_events_start_date":"2024-12-18 00:00:00","_just_events_end_date":"2025-02-06 23:59:00","_just_events_link":""},"event_category":[74],"class_list":["post-4902","just_event","type-just_event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event_category-exhibitions","entry","has-media"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 -
