예수 탄생

John La Farge brings a moody, almost theatrical vibe to this classic nativity scene, stripping away the usual bright cheer for something far more mysterious. A dramatic, diagonal beam of light cuts through the heavy darkness to illuminate the baby Jesus in the manger, while shadowy, robed figures watch from the sidelines with an air of quiet reverence. It feels less like a traditional holiday card and more like a scene from a symbolist dream, showcasing La Farge's incredible talent for playing with light and shadow—a skill he would later use to revolutionize American stained glass windows.
