Selecting relevant sections of medieval and Renaissance paintings and pairing them with the story of Christ's birth as told in the stately language of Isaiah and the Gospels of Matthew and Luke from the King James Bible, the Met has created a handsome gift book. On glossy paper, the large reproductions sometimes bleed across the gutter and small vignettes are placed above the text.
