This is a stunningly beautiful book,
This review is from: The Angel Tree: A Christmas Celebration (Hardcover)
Each time I visit the Met at Christmas and see this exqusite creche, I am in awe at the magnitude and splendor of detail. The book was fascinating. I appreciated the in-depth history of Neapolitan artists who meticulosly hand carved the individual figures with such fastidious, detailed execution..
