Christmas----happy season

Christmas, as theme of terracotta crafts wasn't celebrated by the early church until the fourth century. In the fourth century, the church decided to try to redeem a Roman pagan winter solstice festival: the festival of Saturnalia.

This December holiday was considered the "birthday of the unconquered sun." Romans danced in the streets with gifts under their arms and greenery atop their heads.

Based on Biblical evidence Jesus of Nazareth was probably born in the fall near the Jewish feast of Tabernacles or in the spring around the time of Passover. Sometime before 336 the Church in Rome, unable to stamp out the pagan festival of Saturnalia, spiritualized it as the "Feast of the Nativity of the Sun of Righteousness." December 25th was chosen for the celebration of his birth by Pope Julius I. The practice was adopted by the Christian church in Antioch around 374. By 380 it was being observed in Constantinople, and by 430 in Alexandria.

From November onwards, it is impossible to forget that Christmas, as theme of terracotta crafts is coming.

Terracotta craft

The art of modeling terracotta items was prevalent during the Indus Valley Civilization. Nearly every archaeological site, from Harappa onwards, has produced many a terracotta object. While some of these items are crude, others are examples of fine workmanship and beauty. Though West Bengal in India is famed for the terracotta items produced in the Bankura district, but it can be made even in the pace of home after taking a short training. Any terracotta craftsmen on Athena-hands.com devote their skills solely to sculpting, considering themselves superior to vessel making potters. Although the figurative works blending technical skill and artistic expertise are not made on the potter's wheel, this age-old craft avails of the process of firing. Before firing, the colour of the clay is usually gray. Following the process of firing at high temperature, it turns Indian red. Usually, modeling tools made from bamboo are used to make these figurative works and account for the varied shapes, sizes and dimensions. The end product, bereft of any additional colours, exudes a feel of the soil and that is what makes it all the more alluring. The items are fragile and should be handled with care. From time to time, they can be washed with plain water.
