This souvenir sheet summarizes the foundations of the Nativity; the family with Joseph, the Virgin Mary and child, the majesty of the newborn, the homage of the Magi, the Star of Bethlehem that guided the visitors, the exultant of the heavenly choir of angels, the symbolic appeal of the ox and the ass and the light that sallies forth from the divine,  “light to illumine the people …” on the Christian Way. Mount Titano also takes part in this great celebratory day of Christmas
