The format of this panel suggests that it was an element of a predella. however, neither the other parts of the predella nor the altarpiece to which it belonged had been identified.

In the centre of the panel a Nativity scene is depicted. There are two other scenes on the panel: an Annunciation to the Shepherds at the left side, and a large open landscape at the right.
