Description

A FE fractal transformed into kaleidoscope with Paint Shop and animated with animation shop. To return a little child... tomorrow in Italy celebrates the Epiphany,a typical figure of Italian folklore dispensers of gifts associated with Christmas. The Befana is visiting children the night of Epiphany (Jan. 6) to fill stockings, hung from specially left children in that night, if they were good with candies and chocolates, or if the bad guys were filled with coal. The Befana is often described as an old woman who flies on a broom. Unlike a witch, she is often smiling and a bag or a bag full of sweets, gifts to deserving children, but also coal for children who have not been good during the year. According to the popular story, the Three Wisemen, directed to Bethlehem to bring gifts to the Christ child, failing to find the way, asked the information to an old lady. Despite their insistence to follow them to visit the small, the woman no came out of the house to accompany them. Later, she was sorry not to have gone with them, and, having prepared a basket of sweets, came out of the house and began a search, without succeeding. So she stopped at every house that was on the road, giving candy to children she met, in the hope that one of them was the little Jesus. Since then she turns to the world, making gifts to all children, to be forgiving. Have a great week! :)
