The Virgin sits with the Christ Child on a cloud cover. In the sky above, the Holy Spirit has appeared in the form of a dove, angels with laurel wreaths on the left and right. On the ground below the clouds are Saints Sebastian, Francis of Assisi, Anthony of Padua, Peter, Nicholas and Catherine. The print is part of a series of 53 prints after paintings by Titian and Veronese.
