Guillaume Le Rouge

Cleveland Museum of Art

A colorful medieval-style illustration of a religious scene. A bearded man wearing a blue robe with gold accents and a gold mitre holds a naked baby over a low table. A woman in a blue dress with gold accents stands at the table. Four people stand behind the table. A man on the left wears a blue robe with orange accents and a gold mitre; the woman next to him wears a brown dress and a head covering; the woman next to her wears a green dress; and an older man on the right wears a brown robe and a head covering. A window with three rounded tops is in the background, with green curtains on either side. A decorative border surrounds the illustration, including a green pillar; a blue and gold tassel; a red banner at the top with "beate marie" in red text; and a white rectangle below the illustration with black text. A blue and gold frame surrounds the text. A circular floral design is at the bottom left. Red text on a brown banner at the bottom reads "NVNC DIMITTIS SER:VVM".
