Decapitated cow, Mary under the manger, upside-down sheep, camel on Joseph's head. At one point the shepherd lay, armess and without his crook, upon Mary. You can still see some of his crook there, in fact. But M. decided that that might not be appropriate to this family blog, and took the liberty of altering the piece. Questioning the artist's expression... sometimes, the Mom outweighs the artist in her, I guess.
Even without the possibly predatory shepherd, it does kinda look like Mary and the wise men has WAY too good a time during happy hour, and they're all kinda under the table...or the manger... or whatever!
ReplyDeleteJust for the record, Mummy and Granna, the camel was put on Joseph's head by the pastor of our church, after she put Joseph waaay over on the sidelines with the feminist comment, "Oh, who needs Joseph, anyway?" :) - Mommy
