A gold framed 17th-century painting, rectangular but with an arched top, that depicts the scene of the birth of a baby. There are at least 10 women and girls surrounding the baby, depicted at bottom center, over a large pan of water. The mother, in bed, is visible in the background toward the right edge of the artwork. Within the arch at the top, seated on a cloud, is one angel painted in color at full length, and the heads of two cherubim sketched in brown or red paint.

Happy birthday, Mother Mary! ❤️

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

A painting - a busy scene depicting a birth. At left is a canopied bed - the woman in the bed hands a baby to a man in a red cap and long black robe, seated in front of the bed. Behind the bed three angels kneel; two hold their palms together in prayer, and the one in the middle holds a sheet of music. In the center of the painting are two angels, one in front and one behind. The one behind is playing a harp. At right, between two columns, a woman carries a tray toward the bed. Between the two angels and the tray-bearing woman there are more figures visible in the distance, outdoors, beyond an arched doorway.
