Designer: Fanny GardeFourth Christmas Collection plate made by Bing and Grondahl in 1898Used - excellent condition no original boxDescription: 1898 Bing & Grondahl Christmas plate, designed by Fanny Garde, artist may have been inspired by the legend of the Christmas star, where a little girl went out into the field with her father on the night that ...Jesus was born. When the shepherds went on their way to find the child, the little girl followed. When they found Jesus in the stable, the wise men and the shepherds offered Jesus presents, but the little girl had nothing. She cried and prayed that the mother and child would have a happy life.Suddenly as she prayed roses grew where her tears had fallen, she gathered the roses and gave them to Jesus. Whether this was the inspiration for the plate is not certain, but it is a fact, that the Christmas rose almost always blooms around Christmas time, as one of the few flowers which can bloom in spite of frost and snow.
