The Nativity scene, a symbol of Nativity, celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ, a central figure in Christianity. Its veneration has roots in the evangelical tradition, particularly in the accounts of Luke and Matthew, which describe the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem. Saint Francis of Assisi is universally recognized as the creator of the first living Nativity scene in Greccio in 1223, with the intent of making the mystery of the Incarnation visible and tangible, allowing the faithful to contemplate the poverty and humility of Christ's birth. Since then, the Nativity scene has become an icon of Christmas, a powerful reminder of faith, family, and Christian values, spreading to every culture and taking on different artistic forms, from the simplest to the most elaborate, but always with the same message of hope and love.
