"Mary and Joseph on the Way to Bethlehem"; detail in the background of the Portinari Altarpiece, c. 1475, by Hugo van der Goes, Flemish, now in the Uffizi Gallery, Florence, Italy
At the lake a mile from me, there's a rocky spot that'd make a good stand-in for the original scene.
I was going to take the toys there, but decided to try to to reproduce the whole scene in my room.
(I don't have a cow though.)
So accurate i have trouble distinguishing one from the other...Don't have a cow!

ReplyDeleteThanks though--you know how futzy it is to get everyone to pose at once--soon as the donkey is in place, one of the girlettes is picking her nose...
I was pleased that it worked to reproduce the scenery at home (baskets & chair cushions)--more fun than finding an outdoor place, in this case.
