This tiny painting shows Mary kneeling beside the baby Jesus. A few shepherds stand behind her. The background is dark except for a sliver of light. The artist crams lots of detail into a small space. Look for the glowing candle in the foreground. It’s the only light in the whole scene. Check out another painting by Elscheimer, Adam (atribuit).
