About this work

This watercolor and ink drawing depicts the Nativity, with the Virgin Mary in a white veil and yellow halo tenderly holding a haloed infant, while an older bearded man looks on from the upper left. A small haloed child rests on a dark green and blue cloth in the lower left, and a figure in a red sash kneels at right against a dark background framed by a maroon border decorated with gold stars.
