This print showcases "The Nativity of the Virgin" a mesmerizing painting from the middle of the 17th century. Created by an unknown artist from the School of Brest in Russia, this masterpiece is currently housed in the esteemed collection of the State Art Museum of Belorussian Republik in Minsk. Rendered with exquisite detail and skillful brushwork, this oil on canvas artwork depicts a poignant scene from Christian mythology. The central focus lies on Mary, tenderly cradling her newborn baby, Jesus Christ.
