Cork, moss, wax, terracotta, papier-mâché, straw and cloth all pitch in to build this Neapolitan crèche, a whole tiny world assembled by many hands. Naples took its nativity scenes extremely seriously in the 1700s, crowding them with shepherds, vendors and bystanders well beyond the usual cast. A miniature theatrical production frozen mid scene, and proof that maximalism was invented long before your aunt's holiday mantel.
