The Star of Bethlehem
Bruno Piglhein
ca. 1890

This simple yet moving work by 19th century German artist Bruno Piglhein captures Mary quietly holding her infant Jesus, with the angels around them in wonder and adoration. The Star of Bethlem shines high above them in the night sky, pointing the way to the Christ child for all who will go to Him. Jesus's humanity is expertly captured in His small newborn form, while His divinity is shown by His radience and the angelic hosts that have come to be with their Lord.

Text:
Hail and blessed be the hour and moment in which the Son of God was born of the most pure Virgin Mary, at midnight, in Bethlehem, in the piercing cold.

In that hour vouchsafe, I beseech Thee, O my God, to hear my prayer and grant my desires through the merits of Our Savior Jesus Christ, and of His blessed Mother. Amen.
