TODAY IS THE LAST DAY for Glencairn’s “World Nativities” exhibition and “Christmas in the Castle” tour. It is also Epiphany (aka Three Kings’ Day), traditionally celebrated as the day the Wise Men visited the Christ Child in Bethlehem. The king pictured here, who is holding a gift for the Christ Child in his left hand, is from the Nativity workshop of Giuseppe and Marco Ferrigno, a fourth-generation family business located in Naples, Italy. The Ferrigno family began making Presepi (Nativity scenes) in Naples in 1836. https://glencairnmuseum.org/christmas-at-glencairn -- source link
