O Father, who hast declared thy love to men by the birth of the Holy Child at Bethlehem: Help us to welcome him with gladness and to make room for him in our common days; so that we may live at peace with one another and in goodwill with all thy family; through the same thy Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.
Twelve Artworks of Christmas ❄️
This beautiful nocturnal scene by Rembrandt has special resonance on this, the winter solstice, the shortest day of the year. The painting is one of nine painted landscapes by Rembrandt, and the only by night. #Solstice #12ArtworksOfChristmas pic.twitter.com/noKD5OGpFg
