Mary, Joseph, three Shepherds and two angels surround a crib covered with a white cloth on which rests the newsborn Jesus. Behind, on the left, a monumental stone colums that belongs to building. In the far distance, on a hillside, shepherds with their flock by a tent. Above, the sky opens and an angel descends through the clouds in a ray of light.

Eertvelt was a marine painter. He is seen here in portrait from the waist up. He is turned to the proper left with his head turned, facing almost front. Behind him is a scene of the ocean with a ship and voluptuous clouds. This is from the Gillis Hendricx edition of the Iconography (Icones Principum Virorum Doctorum, Pictorum Chalcographorum Statuorum nec non Amatorum Pictoriae Artis Numero Centum), 1632-44.
