Description of the work
The painting depicts Saint Joseph with the Baby Jesus in a moment of intense emotional intimacy. The close composition focuses attention on the paternal relationship, with Saint Joseph supporting the naked Child, rendered with naturalness and sweetness. The warm, enveloping light softly models the flesh, while the dark background eliminates any spatial reference.
Stylistic analysis and attribution

The work exhibits stylistic characteristics attributable to Ligurian painting of the second half of the 17th century. The affectionate rendering of the subject, the quality of the amber-toned flesh tones, and the flowing drapery evoke the circle of Bartolomeo Guidobono. Some simplifications suggest an attribution to a workshop or circle.
