''No. 17 Scenes from the Life of Christ: 1. Nativity: Birth of Jesus'' (1304-1306) is a fresco by the Italian master Giotto di Bondone, located in the Scrovegni Chapel, also known as the Arena Chapel, in Padua, Veneto, Italy. This work is one of a series of 38 frescoes that depict various episodes from the life of the Virgin Mary and the life of Christ, and it is celebrated for its significant role in the development of Western art.

The ''Nativity: Birth of Jesus'' is a pivotal scene within the cycle, illustrating the moment of Christ's birth as described in the New Testament. Giotto's innovative approach to composition, use of space, and depiction of human emotion marked a departure from the stylized Byzantine art that preceded him and is considered a precursor to the Renaissance style of painting.

In this fresco, Giotto employs a naturalistic style to convey the intimacy and sanctity of the biblical event. The Virgin Mary is shown reclining and adoring the newborn Jesus, who is laid in a manger, while Joseph rests in contemplation. The scene is populated with angels, shepherds, and animals, all of which are rendered with a sense of volume and three-dimensionality that was groundbreaking for the time.

The fresco is renowned for its emotional resonance, achieved through the careful arrangement of figures and the use of light and shadow, which creates a sense of depth and realism. Giotto's work on the Scrovegni Chapel frescoes, including the ''Nativity: Birth of Jesus,'' had a profound influence on later artists and is widely regarded as a masterpiece of proto-Renaissance art.

The Scrovegni Chapel and its frescoes were commissioned by the wealthy banker Enrico Scrovegni and are considered one of Giotto's most important works. The ''Nativity: Birth of Jesus'' is not only a significant religious representation but also a landmark in the history of art for its stylistic innovations and its impact on the evolution of painting in Europe.
