About this work

A pencil drawing serving as a cover design for the song Le sommeil de Jésus, with the title lettering arched above a Nativity scene. The Virgin Mary kneels beside a manger holding the sleeping infant Jesus, while Saint Joseph leans on a staff and an angel hovers above, framed by a classical column and flowers. The lower panel carries the credits for the lyrics by Émile Cicile and the music by H. Maréchal, and the work is attributed to Luc-Olivier Merson.
