 In his "Italian Journey" of 1787, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe also described the placement of nativity scenes in Naples during the Christmas season. He noticed that the Neapolitans would set up large nativity scenes on the flat roofs of their houses so that the scenic views of the Gulf of Naples and Mount Vesuvius could be integrated into the background of the sacred events. This nativity scene replicates just such a presentation. In doing so, the observance of the perspective and the proportions are of particular importance. In order for the nativity scene to appear harmonious, a display case of more than 10 m in depth was installed in the museum.

"A faithful witness will not lie: but a false witness will utter lies."      

"This book, though complete in itself, is the second in a series of volumes which I am writing about the Spanish empire. The first volume was Rivers of Gold, published in 2003. I am now at work on a third volume which takes the extraordinary story to 1580, when Spain ceased to expand her responsibilities. King Philip II decided in that year not to try to conquer China." ~~~HUGH THOMAS: The Golden Age. The Spanish Empire of Charles V , PREFACE

⁵ Testis fidelis non mentitur; profert autem mendacium dolosus testis. 5. El testigo verdadero no miente; el testigo falso dice mentiras. ⁵ Il testimone fedele non mentisce, ma il testimone falso proferisce menzogne. ⁵ Un témoin fidèle ne ment pas, Mais un faux témoin dit des mensonges. ⁵ Ein ehrlicher Zeuge sagt immer die Wahrheit aus, ein falscher Zeuge verbreitet Lügen. ⁵ Правдивый свидетель не станет лгать, а лживый свидетель дышит ложью.
