    Yes, and that is my favorite period,
    the softness of the feminine shape,
    the lush fabrics...oh! to be able to paint like that!

    A very sumptuous image with colors that are so rich as is the story being told.

    They don't call these special people master painters for nothing. An absolutely gorgeous depiction from Murillo's point of view of Our Lady.
