About the piece
Painted in 1640 by Jacques Stella, this French Baroque masterpiece captures the solemn union of Mary and Joseph. Set against a backdrop of sweeping classical arches and grand columns, the scene is filled with dignified figures and rich, luminous colors that exemplify the artist's refined Classicist style and mastery of perspective.
