If you ever wondered how stricly religious is a culturally catholic smallish town in Portugal: this is a nativity scene in traditional folk art from my hometown.
Sometimes I feel that I just wandered right back into Roman times with the amount of monsters, devils, animals, etc in art. And that is paired with an almost deification of the various local saints and all their festivities! Some people also visit folk witches for various troubles, usually the same people that frequent church.
