I have just been introduced to this beautiful painting of the birth of our Savior. It is titled “The Nativity” 1597 by Federico Fiori Barocci. The colors are so rich and I love Mary’s halo, the adoring stable animals watching over the baby, and the sweet, sweet, baby that actually looks like a baby. It is very intimate and reminds me of all the times I watched a newborn of my own as they lay with the light just radiating from them, lighting up the whole room. Merry Christmas. Remember that this little baby is the reason for our celebrations and giving. Love to all!
