EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite "Nativity" drawing from Jacopo Bellini's Album of drawings. Created with pen and ink on vellum, this masterpiece measures 26x38 cm and is currently housed in the Louvre's Cabinet de dessins in Paris, France. The scene depicts the iconic moment of Jesus Christ's birth, with the Virgin Mary and Joseph adoringly gazing at their newborn baby. The composition exudes a sense of tranquility as Mary rests beside her sleeping infant while Joseph kneels in prayer. The stable setting is intricately detailed, showcasing Bellini's mastery of architectural elements amidst a serene Italian garden landscape. Surrounding the holy family are various symbolic figures including an ox and donkey, representing humility and sacrifice. A group of shepherds can also be seen paying homage to the divine child. Adding an element of intrigue to the artwork are an eagle and falcon soaring above, symbolizing spirituality and freedom. Bellini's use of linear perspective creates depth within his drawing, highlighting his skill as a Renaissance artist. This particular photograph was taken by Studio Giraudon in 1933, capturing every intricate detail on vellum paper. With its timeless beauty captured through photography, this image allows viewers to appreciate Bellini's meticulous study and sketch work that brings this sacred moment to life.
