Angel Bethlehem Jesus Nativity Shepherds Tells Testament Told
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment when an angel appears to the shepherds of Bethlehem to announce the birth of Jesus, the long-awaited Messiah prophesied in the Old Testament. The scene is taken from the New Testament of the Bible, specifically the Gospel of Luke (2:8-20), which recounts how an angel of the Lord appeared to shepherds in the fields, near Bethlehem, and declared that they would find the newborn King of Israel wrapped in swaddling clothes and lying in a manger. The shepherds, filled with awe and wonder, quickly went to the stable to pay homage to the newborn child and his mother, Mary. The serene and otherworldly expression of the angel, with his outstretched wings and radiant halo, contrasts with the simple, earthy setting of the shepherds and their humble surroundings. The use of soft, muted colors and the gentle, flowing lines of the figures and their clothing add to the sense of peace and tranquility, while the stars in the night sky above serve as a reminder of the divine intervention and the significance of this miraculous event. The tradition of the Nativity scene, depicting the birth of Jesus, has been a cherished part of Christian art and culture for centuries, and continues to be celebrated around the world during the holiday season and beyond. This beautiful print, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a timeless and moving representation of this beloved biblical story and the profound impact it has had on the history of religion and human spirituality.
