Renowned Italian American photographer Anita Sanseverino will present a lecture and photographic exhibit on the history of the "Presepe Napoletano," the traditional Neapolitan nativity scene which dates back to the 11th Century. Meaning "crib" or "crèche" in English, a presepe depicts the birth of Jesus, and also became a showcase for local artisans and craftsmen.
Ms. Sanseverino will trace its origins to the Middle Ages, and how the art form reached its pinnacle in the southern Italian city.
