介绍（中）	洛伦佐·摩纳哥（Lorenzo Monaco）是十五世纪初佛罗伦萨的主要画家，他是一位活跃的照明手稿、壁画和面板画画家。作为国际哥特式风格的主要支持者，他的风格以明亮的色彩和优美、有节奏、流畅的线条为特点。在这幅对耶稣诞生的精美描绘中，构图元素被巧妙地适应了四叶菊的领域，丰富而微妙的色彩和谐反映了艺术家作为手稿画家的技巧。特别引人注目的是夜间环境，充满了来自基督之子和天使的超自然光芒。这个面板构成了一个预定义的一部分，其中还包括一个参观，一个三贤士的崇拜，和一个飞往埃及的航班，据信来自洛伦佐·摩纳哥的报喜祭坛画（佛罗伦萨的Galleria dell'Accademia）。
介绍（英）	Lorenzo Monaco, the leading painter in Florence in the early fifteenth century, was active as a painter of illuminated manuscripts, frescoes and panel paintings. A major proponent of the International Gothic style, his style is characterized by luminous color and graceful, rhythmic, flowing lines. In this exquisite depiction of the Nativity, the compositional elements are brilliantly adapted to the quatrefoil field, and the rich and subtle color harmonies reflect the artist's skill as a manuscript painter. Particularly striking is the nocturnal setting, which is suffused by the supernatural light emanating from the Christ Child and the angel. This panel formed part of a predella, which also included a Visitation, an Adoration of the Magi, and a Flight into Egypt believed to have come from an altarpiece of the Annunciation by Lorenzo Monaco (Galleria dell'Accademia, Florence).
