  • A visit to Carnegie Museum of Art’s Neapolitan presepio, one of the finest Nativity scenes of its kind, has been a Pittsburgh holiday tradition since 1957. Handcrafted between 1700 and 1830, the presepio teems with lifelike figures and colorful details that re-create the Nativity within a vibrant and detailed panorama of 18th-century Italian village life. More than 100 superbly modeled human and angelic figures, along with animals, accessories, and architectural elements, cover 250 square feet and create a memorable depiction of the Nativity as seen through the eyes of Neapolitan artisans and collectors.

    I remember my grandmother bringing me to view the presepio every year when I was a small child. It's an incredible piece of art and history. To me, it belongs as it is depicted here in the Hall of Architecture as opposed to the the Museum of Art where it was relocated a few years ago. Architecture Hall was it's traditional home and, to me, it just looks better in this setting.

    Having lived in Naples and having seen some beautiful ones this is wonderful. There is one whole street that sells all the handmade piecrs.

    Woah. I wonder how much work this mustve taken, or the processes usen to construct hese characters. I wonder wgat a recreation using modern Neapolitan scenery would look like, or how long it would take to construct sometime similar.

    just incredible art, beautifully crafted with meticulous details, so delightful to see and wonderfully displayed! even the dog has an expression of longing on his little face. (looks like a bulldog the way they used to be.) 🌺🌲✨
