The Adoration of the Shepherds by Alphonse Legros: A black and white drawing of a group of people gathered around a woman and a baby. The woman sits in the center, with the baby on her lap. She wears a head covering and looks down at the baby. The people surrounding them are dressed in old-fashioned clothing, some are kneeling and some standing. A man on the left holds a shepherd's staff. In the background, there is a roof with beams and a wall to the right. Two small cherubs' faces appear in the upper center. The drawing is framed by a border, and the overall style is detailed and realistic.
