The Nativity

Ludwig Krug

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white image of The Nativity by Ludwig Krug. The image depicts a nativity scene in a stone building with an archway. A man wearing a wide-brimmed hat stands on the left. He holds a walking stick and has a sword on his back. To the right, a woman sits beside a basket with a baby inside. An older man kneels next to the basket, looking at the baby. In the background, through the archway, a horseman and another figure are visible. The scene includes a tree with bare branches. The artist's initials "L K" are on a sign on the wall. The image is framed by a border, with a white background around it.
