The beauty of this picture, is the delicious composition gives Murillo to move the piety and religion to the everyday, by showing the Virgin holding the child as any mother fucks her arms to her son. It also stresses the childlike curiosity Child facing the viewer and seems to want to get out of the box. The picture conveys a lot of tenderness, a typical feature of the author in his work.
