"Great Antique Neapolitan Creche Architectural Capriccio '800"
On a round base is placed the nativity scene composed of the Holy Family with the ox and the donkey, three cherubs flying in the sky. The seated Madonna and standing Saint Joseph turn an adoring gaze to the baby Jesus placed in a sheet on the manger, the faces of the two animals appear between them, while three cherubs hang in flight on a sort of architectural capriccio with a column. Missing protective glass case. The figurines are typically made with a terracotta bust and limbs with glassy eyes joined together in an integral manner with an iron and cloth mannequin, covered in silk clothes. The architecture is made of wood, cork and various materials.
