About this work
Young Mary sits on the lap of her mother Anna. Next to them sits her father Joachim. They are visited by two angels who bring them flowers. In the sky, surrounded by heavenly rays, the Holy Spirit as a dove, surrounded by music-making angels. In the margin, a six-line caption in two columns in Latin. The print is part of an album.
