Item description

The painting depicts a scene dense with characters and movement, centered on the figure of a nurse holding a nimbated newborn baby (surrounded by a ray of stars). The composition is developed on several levels: Featured: Several female figures in brightly colored period clothing (lapis lazuli blue, ochre yellow, and carmine red) care for the little one. At the bottom left stands out a copper cradle with white cloths, rendered with an effective material realism. In the background: The scene opens on a domestic interior where other women are busy heating clothes or preparing the necessary supplies for childbirth, while in the upper left two cherubs witness the scene in the clouds, underlining the sacred nature of the event.
