Prepare, O Bethlehem!

The Orthodox Church's hymns of the prefeast and feast of the Nativity of our Lord celebrate and proclaim in word and song the celestial joy of the incarnation. These beloved texts, so wonderfully illustrated by Niko Chocheli, are filled with beauty and power. They tell in a touching way of the all-embracing participation of creatures in the Creator's coming.

About the Author: Niko Chocheli was born in Tbilsi, Republic of Georgia. He started to draw at the age of four. He graduated with honors from both Tbilisi Nikoladze Art College and Tbilisi State Academy of Fine Arts.
