Star of Bethlehem by Sir Edward Burne-Jones
Exhibited at The Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery
The Christmas carol, Brightest and Best is featured in the VV's novel, The Goddess and the Thief. Now, it has a beautiful new arrangement, composed by Kirsten Morrison, and sung by Kirsten and Peter Shipman in the link attached below - just as they performed it at the book's launch party in Windsor, which is where the novel is set.
It really is exquisite. The VV hopes you enjoy it, and wishes you the very brightest and best of Christmas days.

Happy Christmas Essie and thanks for making it such a magical year for me!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Kimberly...and for all of your kindness and support. Happy Christmas!
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting Burne-Jones version of the Wise Men presenting their gifts. They are in beautiful robes, largely blue in colour, handsome, clean and eager to see the baby. It may not look like any part of Israel or Jordan, but it does look peaceful.
ReplyDeleteThat is what I wish you and the bloggers. A year of true peace.
Thank you, Hels - and all good wishes to you too.
ReplyDeleteHappy Christmas Essie. Hope you have a fab time and 2015, is a great year for you.
