ABOUT THIS PIECE Renaissance Painter Pieter Aertsen's The Adoration of the Infant Christ was created in 1549 - 1569 and the painting is in Amsterdam Museum. The original size of the work is 89,8 x 59,2 cm and is made of oil on panel. An ox looks at us curiously. The animal once witnessed the Adoration of the Christ Child in the stable in Bethlehem. Two shepherds bending over can just be seen. This panel is a fragment of a large altarpiece, probably from the Nieuwe Kerk. It must have been damaged during the disturbances surrounding the Alteration in 1578. Only this part was spared. In this fragment of a much larger panel, an ox looks at the viewer. A shepherd stands over the animal, his gaze focused on something to the left, out of the picture. There is no doubt that the newborn Christ child was once depicted there. The white cloth on the left probably belongs to the manger. Behind the shepherd, recognizable by his staff, is another male figure, perhaps a second shepherd. The fragment was part of a large altarpiece depicting the Adoration of the Shepherds. The Artist: Dutch mannerist painter Pieter Aertsen (1509 – 1575) credited with the invention of the monumental genre scene, which combines still life and genre painting and often also includes a biblical scene in the background.
