View of one of a portion of a restored mosaics on the south wall of the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem. The mosaics on the south wall commemorate the decisions of the six ecumenical councils.
"The mosaic decorations on the walls of the nave date to the restoration of 1165–9. Each side had three registers: the detailed description made by the Franciscan Qaresmius in 1628 enables us to complete the missing sections." (Murphy–O'Connor, pp. 235-36).
