This tender Nativity scene captures the sacred spirit of Christmas through the lens of Mexican folk art. Nestled inside a hand-sculpted nopal cactus, the Holy Family is brought to life in vibrant barro clay—each figure shaped and painted by skilled artisans who carry forward generations of cultural tradition. The nopal, a deeply rooted symbol of Mexican identity and resilience, becomes a protective cradle for this timeless nacimiento.
