"Rest on the Flight Into Egypt" by Aert de Gelder, c. 1690. MFA Boston 57.182. |
At Midnight Mass I started imaging what a contemporary Nativity scene would look like. A parking garage would be a good stable equivalent - if you can't find a hotel room, you have to sleep in the car. There would have to be some stray cats running around, and the shepherds could be construction workers doing some night paving. Then the magi would be oil sheiks who fund science research, and would fly in from Bahrain on their private jet.
Awesome. Don't forget the list of risk factors making Baby J eligible for the ATA program!
ReplyDeleteThat's actually a really interesting reflection... that could spark a cool photo essay actually...
