Beautiful pair of sculptures in painted wood and terracotta, typical of a church nativity scene. The two figures represent a peasant woman helping a beggar, both wearing traditional garb of the era. The peasant woman holds a basket, while the beggar holds a purse. The details of the clothing and accessories are very detailed, and the figures are embellished with small jewels. The faces of the two women are very expressive and well-made, conveying a sense of compassion and solidarity. These sculptures are an example of the fine Neapolitan craftsmanship of the 18th century.
