Peay imagines shepherds on the night of Christ’s birth. One shepherd looks down, distracted by thoughts that weigh on him heavily. A young shepherd looks up and eagerly seeks his companion’s attention to point to the heavens. The clouds swirl as angels miraculously appear, ready to announce the Savior’s imminent arrival.
“He reaches out to the shepherd and says, ‘Behold!’”
—Randolph Peay
