Tympanum Section with the Nativity and Annunciation to the Shepherds
Unknown
ca. 1275–1300 · Limestone · The Cloisters
From an unidentified church portal, this tympanum shows two scenes from the early life of Jesus. The carving has been damaged, and the right half of the tympanum and upper part are lost. The curve of the arch on the left, however, helps define its overall size and shape
