Om maleriet
Med museets ord — på spansk
La Virgen adolescente, vestida con túnica sencilla de color carmín violáceo y manto azul oscuro, se presenta de frente, con las manos juntoas sobre el pecho en gesto de oración y la cabeza levemenete inclinada hacia su derecha. Bajo sus pies, un racimo de cabezas de querubines y el creciente de la luna exigido por la iconografía. No hay ninguno de los atributos tradicionales, y del paisaje terrenal, apenas se advierten, en el ángulo inferior derecho, unas ramas de árbo. El celaje es de tono dorado.
