In tutto il mondo cristiano, durante il periodo natalizio, esiste l'usanza di erigere presepi nelle case e nelle chiese. Nella capanna vediamo la Sacra Famiglia e i pastori, sullo sfondo l'asino e il bue. L'adorazione dei tre re Magi Gli apostoli evangelisti Luca e Matteo furono i primi a descrivere la storia dell'incarnazione di Cristo. Già nel Quarto secolo troviamo nelle catacombi di Roma, immagini della natività. La storia ci dice che già in epoca Paleocristiana, il giorno di Natale nelle chiese venivano esposte immagini religiose. Comunemente il "padre del presepio" viene considerato San Francesco d'Assisi , poiché a Natale del 1223 fece il primo presepio in un bosco. Allora, Papa Onorio III, gli permise di uscire dal convento di Greccio, così egli eresse una mangiatoia all'interno di una caverna in un bosco, vi portò un asino ed un bue viventi, ma senza la Sacra Famiglia. Poi tenne la sua famosa predica di Natale davanti ad una grande folla di persone. Nella chiesa di Santa Maria Maggiore a Roma, si può ammirare uno dei più antichi presepi natalizi. Fu realizzato in alabastro nel 1289 da Arnolfo da Cambio e donato a questa chiesa. Il presepio ha la forma di una casetta, in cui è rappresentata l'adorazione dei Re Magi. Un periodo fiorente di presepi fu il Barocco. Prime notizie certe di presepi di chiese si rilevano dalla Germania meridionale quando, dopo la Riforma i Gesuiti riconobbero per primi il grande valore del presepio come oggetto di preghiera e di raccoglimento, nonché mezzo di informazione religiosa. I Gesuiti fecero costruire preziosi e fastosi presepi, tanto che quest'usanza si estese velocemente nelle chiese di tutta l' Europa cattolica, finché ogni comune volle un presepio in ogni chiesa. Baluardi delle costruzioni dei presepi in Europa divennero l'Italia, la Spagna, il Portogallo e il Sud della Francia. Nell'Europa dell'Est la Polonia, la Repubblica Ceca e la Slovacchia, in centro Europa soprattutto l'Austria ed il Sud della Germania. e di più l'interesse del mondo rurale per il presepe. A cavallo degli ultimi due secoli, il presepio perse un po' di interesse, per tornare in auge ai giorni nostri, dove sta conoscendo un vero e proprio revival.

Once before it was difficult to choose between color and black and white but this time for me it is even more difficult. On the impact I take more appeal in the version in black and white but the joy and serenity expressed by individuals are accentuated by the color version and then irrationally I must tell you that this moves me more.
Probably the destination of the picture would influence my choice, however, are beautiful both versions.
A greeting
Stefania :-P

Stefania, actually I too had the same doubts and the same concerns, that's why I posted the two versions, to get feedback that made me realize what was the favorite. Of course, the colors light up Christmas and so it is right that the latter will prevail. Thank you so much for your attention that you gave me, for comment, always beautiful, and the constant presence here.
A dear greeting
Annamaria :-P
