This brilliant retablo celebrates the nativity in a Central American setting. Accompanied by a cow and a donkey, Mary and Joseph receive the newborn Christ child. Birds, butterflies, a lamb and an armadillo celebrate beneath the sun of El Salvador. A fusion of religious belief and daily life, this diorama by Maria Estela Perlera de Portillo is a manifestation of folk art and faith. It is designed to display on a table or on the wall.
