Mother Mary giving birth to the babe Jesus, accompanied only by Joseph. No shining star. No shepherds. No animals. No stable. No manger. No King Herod. No three wise men. Almost everything is blue, as though symbolizing sadness and melancholy on the part of the modern world that needs no divine savior. Merry Christmas!Ioanes Rakhmat's blog founded on Oct 31, 2009, for international readers, to portray Jesus in company with other holy names past and present, resulting in fascinating insights necessary for viewing Jesus anew, patently different from the Jesus of Christian orthodoxy

there is no art (Leonardo da Vinci)

Mother Mary Giving Birth to the Babe Jesus
Mother Mary giving birth to the babe Jesus, accompanied only by Joseph. No shining star. No shepherds. No animals. No stable. No manger. No King Herod. No three wise men. Almost everything is blue, as though symbolizing sadness and melancholy on the part of the modern world that needs no divine savior. Merry Christmas!
