About this work
Five stylized faces ringed by gold halos look out from a dark, starry field at the top; below them a wreath of thorns hangs from a pair of raised hands, and beneath that a cluster of figures wrapped in gold, rose, and floral-patterned cloaks huddle together - a fair-haired girl, a bearded man, two women - while at the bottom a hand holds a lit candle before a tiny embroidered townscape.
The palette is built from ochres, golds, and deep browns with touches of red and green, every surface covered in dense embroidery-like patterning and scattered points of light suggesting stars or flames; the flattened, mask-like faces and gilded ornament give the scene a devotional, mysterious atmosphere.
