One of a number of pictures that Albrecht Dürer [Duerer] made of the Nativity, i.e. the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem, a significant religious event to people of the Christian religion.

The mother Mary and the baby Jesus are in to the left; to the right, outside the building, a man, possibly intended to be Joseph, filles a jug with water from a well. |
