At the centre, the Virgin Mary with long red hair and a plain dark blue robe, kneels to worship the tiny newborn Christ Child, who lies on some hay on the floor. Joseph stands to the front left. In the shadows are an ox and a donkey. Three very naturalistic shepherds kneel to the right, while many angels, some in rich brocade cloaks, gather around.
