This painting is a great representation of a continuous narrative. It has the same people that are shown throughout the painting in different situations. When you look around the painting you can see the different stories that are told. Another excellent example of Drapery. I love how Marys endearing expression remains the same throughout the piece, like shes happy yet worried at he same time. My eyes followed this piece from the front, the behind, then to the back left. I think thats the way most would subconsciously approach it. I think Jesus has a funny expression on his face for being such a small baby. I also really like the gray dress in the front, the detail on the puffed shoulders really make it stand out over the others.
