For 10 points, name this 1500 depiction of the birth of Christ, which is Botticelli's only signed work.
Rab Hatfield argues that twelve figures each holding a banner with an inscription at the top of this painting represent the twelve "privileges" of the Virgin Mary. The bizarre Greek inscription written at the top of this work states it was painted "according to the 11th chapter of Saint John in the second woe of the Apocalypse during the loosing of the devil for three and a half years; then he will be chained in the 12th chapter and we shall see [him buried] as in this picture." In the foreground of this work several small devils are hiding themselves in the holes of the earth, while above twelve angels dangle golden crowns from the sky, which has opened to reveal the golden light of Heaven. At the bottom of this work three angels surprisingly embrace three humans and crown them with olive branches, while another angel with pink wings on the right speaks to two shepherds who genuflect beside the title event. An abnormally large baby Jesus and Virgin Mary sit under a thatched roof in this painting ?purportedly inspired by the sermons of Savonarola.
