About this work

This painting shows Mary in a red robe. A small angel kneels beside her. Outside the window, a detailed garden sits under a blue sky. It was part of a church screen in East Anglia. The colors are rich, and the patterns are sharp. The hands and face were damaged after the Reformation. This work looks a lot like panels from that period.
