The camel with his eyes half-closed due to the fatigue of the long journey knelt down to help the Magi get off his back and reach the cave of the Savior. The Wise King still clinging to the armchair with one hand has his eyes turned upward and his mouth almost ajar as a sign of amazement.

Three King getting off camel, 18 A. Tripi.
The camel with his eyes half-closed due to the fatigue of the long journey knelt down to help the Magi get off his back and reach the cave of the Savior. The Wise King still clinging to the armchair with one hand has his eyes turned upward and his mouth almost ajar as a sign of amazement. He has finally reached his goal, he is tired and exhausted but the wonder that awaits him will vanish his fatigue.
All the statues are handmade, in terracotta and cloth, then meticulously painted by hand. They are beautiful works of art made with skill and attention at Angela Tripi's artistic workshop. Normally the statues of the traditional nativity scene, for example the Neapolitan one, are made with a skeleton made with fabrics and with the ends in terracotta (the head, hands and feet). The nativity statues of Angela Tripi instead have completely formed bodies: they are modeled naked and subsequently dressed with fabrics and small jewels. In her works, the artist tells a story: each statue is depicted in a moment of their life, giving us to the opportunity to understand the existence of a before and after moment. Angela Tripi succeeds in giving each nativity character an amazing realism, never seen before and unrepeatable: no two pieces are ever the same, forever unique. Adapted for an 18 cm nativity set. CHARACTERS MAY DIFFER FROM THE PHOTO AS EVERY SCULPTURE IS A UNIQUE PIECE, BY CHOICE FROM THE ARTIST.
