Adoration of the Shepherds

Nicoletto da Modena

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white image of a nativity scene. The scene is set within an ornate stone archway with two columns on either side. The archway has a smaller archway above it. Inside the archway, a woman kneels on the left holding a baby, with a man standing to her right holding a lantern. A donkey and cow are also present. On the left side of the image, a staircase leads up to another level where two people are standing. On the right side, a man sits on a bench. In the background, a landscape with buildings, trees, and a distant cityscape is visible. A group of cherubs is depicted above the archway. The overall style is detailed and intricate, suggesting it is a work of art from the Renaissance period. The title of the artwork is "Adoration of the Shepherds" and the artist is Nicoletto da Modena.
