The Birth of Our Lord Jesus Christ (La nativité de Notre-Seigneur Jésus-Christ) James Tissot (French, 1836-1902). The Birth of Our Lord Jesus Christ (La nativité de Notre-Seigneur Jésus-Christ), 1886-1894. Opaque watercolor over graphite on gray wove paper, Image: 5 5/8 x 6 3/4 in. (14.3 x 17.1 cm).
