Following the typical dictates of his painting, the composition instills serenity and is free from any message of passion. For this reason his works had a huge success with the public, with a continuous request from private clients for domestic devotion.

The colors used are the prerogative of his always sparse palette and with the incomparable bright blue that distinguishes the production of his workshop. Finally, a note to the incredible ability of the author to create a play of light and shadow emphasized by the perfection of the shades and the dark background. The Virgin and Child, in the foreground, are radiated by a halo of supernatural light, while the figures of Anna and Joseph, on the sides and in the background, are portrayed in dim light illuminated by a soft light.
