Description
The richly clothed saint stands, profile to the left, in a gray bushy silk dress in front of the Madonna seated behind her in front of a wall, wearing a purple dress, white head and chest cloth, blue and olive cloak and her left hand around the saint's shoulder, her right hand around the naked baby Jesus sitting on her right knee. This extends to the saints the martyr's palm and is caressed by it with awe-struck hand. Behind the Madonna opens a green mountain landscape. Anitker wood carved gold frame.
