Adoration of the Shepherds – Goes



     The Blessed Virgin and St. Joseph kneel in prayer beside the newborn Christ's manger-crib, surrounded by a small crowd of people, who are also adoring the little King. On the left side of the picture's background, a shepherd plays music on a pipe. On the right side of the picture's background, shepherds tending their flocks listen to an angel, speaking to them from the sky about the Virgin Birth. This beautiful and detailed artwork of the Birth of Christ is by Goes.
