"The Annunciation to the Shepherds" is a 15th-century painting by the Italian artist Sano di Pietro, a master of the Sienese school. Born Ansano di Pietro di Mencio in 1405, Sano di Pietro was known for his devout religious paintings and his contribution to the Sienese tradition of rich, decorative style that persisted into the Renaissance. This particular work depicts the biblical scene from the Gospel of Luke (2:8-14) in which an angel appears to shepherds in the fields to announce the birth of Jesus Christ.

In "The Annunciation to the Shepherds," Sano di Pietro captures the moment of divine revelation with a blend of earthly simplicity and celestial wonder. The shepherds are typically shown reacting with a mixture of awe and fear as they are greeted by the angelic messenger. The painting is characterized by its delicate use of color and attention to detail, hallmarks of the Sienese style that Sano di Pietro inherited from his predecessors, such as Simone Martini and the brothers Ambrogio and Pietro Lorenzetti.

Sano di Pietro's work often reflects a tender and intimate approach to religious subjects, and "The Annunciation to the Shepherds" is no exception. The painting invites contemplation of the miraculous event and the humble origins of Christ's birth. It is likely that this work was part of a larger altarpiece or a devotional piece intended for private meditation.
