| Many seem to feel that one way to put Christ back into Christmas is by displaying a Nativity scene. |
| In Matthew's Nativity, the angelic Annunciation is made to Joseph while Luke's is to Mary. |
| Other works include The Nativity for soprano and orchestra, sacred choral anthems, hymn preludes for organ and works for trumpet and organ. |
| The figure's thick, apparently woolen clothing offers a striking contrast to the fine, silken garments of the Virgin in the Nativity scene. |
| It is at pains to point out that much of the ceremony took place during the Christmas vigil and on the feast of the Nativity. |
| The engravings of Adam and Eve and the Nativity, both of 1504, are the first fruits of these investigations. |
