The painting, titled "Away in the Manger," captures a serene and sacred moment. At the center, Mary gently admires the newborn Jesus. Joseph stands on the other side of Jesus his gaze protective and loving, as he watches over his family.
 
The manger is humble, with hay scattered on the ground, symbolizing the simplicity and humility of their surroundings. Surrounding the Holy Family, various animals—an ox, a donkey, and a few sheep—look on with calm curiosity, their gentle presence adding warmth to the scene. The animals are positioned naturally around the manger, creating a sense of harmony between the human and natural worlds.
 
Above the scene, a brilliant star shines brightly in the night sky, casting a soft, ethereal light over the manger. The star’s light bathes Mary, Joseph, and Jesus in a heavenly glow, emphasizing the divine nature of the moment. The background is dark, allowing the star's light to stand out and creating a sense of peaceful stillness in the night.
 
The overall composition of the painting is balanced, with the figures arranged in a triangular formation that draws the viewer's eye to the baby Jesus. The colors are rich, with warm tones of gold and brown dominating the scene, contrasted by the cool, luminous light of the star above. The painting evokes a sense of reverence, peace, and the profound significance of the Nativity.
 
The painting is framed in a beautiful antique and black frame, setting off the gold in the painting.
