December – Nativity!

Another selection of Nativity displays around the capital, in churches, cathedrals, shops, and a couple of other places too. I’ve noticed that some nativity scenes show an empty manger, awaiting the birth of Jesus, with Mary, Joseph and the shepherds present, and others feature the Wise Men visiting Jesus with their gifts, traditionally after Christmas on Twelfth Night, the 6th January. So this year I’ve continued the Nativity theme into January to reflect these different styles. As usual I’ve included a few quirky/cute ones!

Westminster Cathedral
I like the inclusion of farmyard animals to set the scene!

St Stephen Walbrook, City of London
