A Savior Is Born by Joseph Brickey

About this Image:

The stable of Christ’s birth was not the barn-like structure so often depicted, but more likely a natural cave in the rocky fields outside Bethlehem. Though this most historic birth went unheeded by a world that would later mark the event as the meridian of time, the event and the setting were certainly the center of attention for heaven’s hosts, represented here by the sign of the dove. Near Mary are bread and drink, emblems of the Bread of Life, who comes out of Bethlehem (which means house of bread) and of the well of Living Water, born in the womb of a rock.

About the Artist:

JOSEPH F. BRICKEY is an award-winning artist in drawing, painting, and sculpture who currently resides in Orem, Utah, with his wife and seven children. Born and raised in Utah, he has studied art throughout the United States and Europe, pursuing the techniques of the old masters and the wisdom of the ancients to create classical art filled with symbolism. He is a graduate of Brigham Young University and the New York Academy of Art, and he is the director of the art program at the Beaux-Arts Academy, a school of classical art and architecture. He believes that "art should both measure up in the museum and capture the common heart. The greatest art is that which generates the greatest good."
