Presepe

Arnolfo Di Cambio

The Papal Basilica of Saint Mary Major

 
DESCRIZIONE:
For several years, unfortunately, it has been exhibited in the museum of the Basilica, but from the time of its creation, on the wishes of Nicholas IV, it was in the righthand aisle. Around the "grotto of the Nativity", which held the relics of the manger, Sixtus V placed his Cappella Sistina, designed by Domenica Fontana. It is the oldest nativity scene in the history of art, created by the great Arnolfo about 70 years after its first presentation, as tradition has it, by Saint Francis of Assisi in Greccio (1223).
