Images of The Nativity
Welcome to our collection of drawings, paintings and illustrations of the Holy Nativity. You’ll find images of Mary, Joseph and Jesus along with angels, wisemen and kings. Much of the artwork in this category is not from children’s books but from famous artists, many of whom lived during the Renaissance.
Gathering Christmas and Nativity images has been an interesting journey. Each artist has put their own interpretation on the story of the Holy Birth. Some include images of the crucifixion and others simply portray the great joy on both heaven and earth of the birth of Jesus Christ.
If you are looking for Christmas images that remember the real reason for the season, you’ve come to the right place. Each year it becomes harder and harder to find Christmas cards with Nativity drawings. Why not make your own from the wonderful collection of vintage Nativity images here on Reusable Art?
