Many areas of Baugin’s picture have been thinly painted. Its sketchy, unfinished appearance is partly due to worn areas of paint, as can be seen in the faded colour of the Virgin’s red sleeve and the angel’s wings. A boy in the centre of the picture is only faintly indicated and the trees are simply sketched in with single lines and dashes of paint. The mountains are painted in shades of blue, reflecting the way that colour appears to change as we look into distance.
