The Adoration of the Shepherds

Ignatius Cornelis Marinus after Jacob Jordaens

National Gallery of Art

The image features a group of individuals gathered closely together in a room with rough stone walls. In the center, a woman seated and turned slightly to the side holds a child on her lap. The woman has pulled back hair and wears draped garments. The child is also dressed in similar fabric. Other figures in the room include an older bearded man, an older woman with a headscarf, and individuals kneeling or leaning inwards. The room is simple, with a ladder and a large basket as additional elements.
