The baby in the arms of Mary came out smaller than a human cell. Height of figures of the baby Jesus is about 22,822 micrometers, and its diameter is about 12.5 micrometers. A human cell has a diameter of 50 micrometers.
In the cave you can see the figures of Mary, Joseph, three kings, three shepherds, a camel, ox, donkey, two sheep and a manger. All the sculptures are placed on a disk with a diameter of just 300 micrometers.
To create nonoverlap figures on the Cathedral square was scanned with lasers and then created plastic anakopii with the help of 3D printing.
