Old oil painting on canvas of Neapolitan manufacture belonging to the early 18th century.
The representation of the Nativity is seen here as a contemplative moment of the Holy Child, by Mary and Joseph, accompanied by little angels.
The composition of the scene is occupied by different characters representing dark colors, colors that belong to the pictorial current that played on the strong contrasts of darkness and light, light and dark.
In this work too, the light radiated by the Child Jesus illuminates the characters around him and brings them out of the surrounding darkness.
A crowd of angels holds a festoon with the inscription "Gloria in excelsis deo".
