The image is a black and white illustration featuring a scene from the nativity. The central figures are the Virgin Mary and the infant Jesus, depicted in a traditional manner. Mary is shown kneeling with her hands clasped together in a gesture of prayer or adoration, while Jesus is lying in a manger, which is a common representation of the birth of Jesus. In the background, there is a depiction of a star, which is often associated with the star of Bethlehem. The star is positioned above the figures, suggesting a night sky. The border of the image is adorned with a pattern of what appears to be snowflakes or possibly a decorative border, which adds a festive touch to the overall design. The style of the illustration is simple and stylized, with clear outlines and minimal shading, which gives it a flat, graphic quality.
