The Nativity Cow

$1,525.00

Condition: Pristine

  • The Nativity Cow | Designed by Ragan Simpich | From the Simpich Nativity Collection

    Luke 2:7 — “And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in swaddling cloths and laid him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.”

    This passage, among the most beloved in Scripture, has inspired countless Nativity scenes through the centuries. It reminds us of the astonishing humility of that first Christmas — that the Savior of the world was laid not in a cradle, but in a feeding trough. One can almost imagine the quiet rustle of hay, the steady breath of nearby animals, and the tender stillness that filled the stable that night.

    As the Simpich Nativity Collection neared completion, Robert and Janice Simpich realized one essential presence was still missing — a true resident of the stable itself. The sheep had come with the shepherds, the camel with the kings, and the donkey had carried Mary to Bethlehem. To complete the story, they invited Ragan Simpich to create the Nativity Cow, a gentle figure representing the calm warmth of the manger.

    Depicted lying peacefully, this beautifully hand-crafted cow embodies quiet devotion and the simplicity of creation surrounding the Holy Family. Her expression conveys both rest and reverence, grounding the entire Nativity in the humble reality of the barn where heaven first touched earth.
