About this work
Seated Mary is surrounded by kneeling apostles. All look to heaven from where the Holy Spirit, in the form of a dove, fills them. As a sign of this filling they have a kind of flame on their heads. On the verso the outlines of the figures of the representation are traced in brown ink.
