Preliminari per un nuovo progetto di presepe popolare

Preparing for a new project about popular crib

Alcune foto dal nuovo progetto di presepe popolare, commissionato da una amica, per il quale lei stessa ha fornito i personaggi , carini, di produzione Cinese.Una autentica corsa contro il tempo, ma vedrò di farcela!

Some photos from the new project about popular crib, commissioned by a friend for whom she gave the characters, cute, Chinese production. A real race against time, but I'll try to do it!

  1. wow! I'm sure that it will be a very good dio!
    the figures are unusual and fine: what's scale?
    Is it your friend who has painted them ?

    1. Hello Sam, then .... the figures are of Chinese manufacture and measure about 12 cm, purchased at a store that sells religious articles. They are already painted origin. With little time left until Christmas, I will try to do the best I can.

  2. The figures themselves are gorgeous and the delicacy of the faces is very beautiful. A very talented painter did those pieces.

    It will be a joy to watch you give a setting to these lovely, lovely figures. To see them live and breathe in their homeland will be a real treat.

    1. Hello Anne, yes it is true I find that the features of the faces are really delicate, excellent sculpture (see the detail of the sandals) and also good painting. I'm developing this work without a real project but every day I invent what to do. It will be a surprise for me too!

    1. You're absolutely right Gowan (you are a careful observer). When I opened the box containing this series of characters (about thirty) I noticed that the style of clothing was very varied in style 700 characters coexist, but also more modern, like the girl who wears the tray. And then the Magi and some characters are frankly Palestinian style ..... how? I'm thinking. I think this strange mixture due to the fact that in China (the country from which the figures) does not exist a culture rooted in the crib, as is the case in Europe for centuries. The first crib, by tradition, is improvised by San Francesco Da Assisi (1182 - 1226).
