Notes

The composition relates to another autograph work in the Quadreria del Pio Monte della Misericordia, Naples (see P. Leone de Castris, Pittura del Cinquecento a Napoli, Naples 1991, p. 279, reproduced). The present design differs from the Naples work in the way Saint Joseph gazes at the viewer directly and is more complex in its inclusion of the still life elements in the centre of the composition.
