Titled simply *Christmas Eve*, this painting by W.F. Bauer marks the night before the Nativity, the evening when many Christian households and congregations gather for worship and quiet reflection before the feast day. Devotional scenes of the holy night were popular subjects for painters and printmakers in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, when reproductions were a common way to bring religious art into the home. Viewers interested in the picture may want to look at how the artist shows the mood of the evening, since the lighting, gathering and setting were often the main vehicles for expressing faith in works of this kind.
