SHRINE OF THE NATIVITY


Considered to be one of the holiest sites in all Christendom. Roberts has captured, in this scene of complex perspective, the power of reverence and silent devotion. It is no wonder that Christians have travelled vicariously to the Holy Land via these emotive images for over 165 years.
