Holy Kinship or the family of the holy Anna shows all the children and grandchildren she had. The group of figures with Mary, the Christ child and Anna sits centrally as Anna in Three in an interior. In the room stand various men including Joachim and Joseph. Two women sit with the smallest children on the ground. On the left two children receive lessons from their father who is already finished with a rod.
