Executed in tempera on wood, the artwork beautifully depicts the Virgin Mary, Saint Joseph, and the infant Jesus, emphasizing their tender connection. Signorelli’s mastery of composition and detail is evident in the realistic portrayals and harmonious arrangement. The use of tempera provides rich, luminous colors that contrast with the delicate spiritual subject matter.
