The image depicts a drawing of the Shrine of the Nativity in Bethlehem. The shrine's interior is shown with brown and white stone columns. The columns have square bases and ornate capitals, and they support a fabric canopy with hanging lights. A staircase with an archway at the top leads up to another level. The walls and floor are made of stone. There is a large painting on the wall to the left. Two men stand and one kneels in prayer. The standing man on the left wears a white robe. The kneeling man wears a dark robe. A pile of clothes, a sword, and a helmet lie on the floor. There are several candelabras and chandeliers. The atmosphere appears reverent.
