Angels Adoring Mary and the Baby Jesus by Henry Holiday 1872 Panel #16641

This stunning image, crafted by the celebrated British artist Henry Holiday in 1872, depicts a serene and reverent Nativity scene. At the center, the Virgin Mary kneels in prayer, her peaceful expression exuding love and devotion as she gazes upon the infant Jesus cradled in a glowing halo of light. The Christ Child rests gently on a bed of radiant white, symbolizing purity and divinity.

Surrounding Mary and Jesus are two graceful angels with golden hair and intricately detailed wings, leaning forward in adoration. Their garments feature ornate patterns that highlight Holiday's attention to design and texture. The rich greens, golds, and pinks within the composition enhance the sense of divine beauty and reverence.

This window showcases Henry Holiday's mastery of stained glass artistry, blending Gothic Revival influences with his signature attention to detail and delicate handling of color and form. The composition captures both spiritual significance and artistic elegance, making it a timeless representation of the Nativity.

A religious window like this would make a good addition to a house of worship or a hospital chapel.
