Description:

The painting depicts a mystical marriage scene. Saint Catherine of Alexandria, identified by her crown and kneeling posture, is the central figure on the right. She is dressed in a rich golden gown, a green underdress, and a flowing red mantle, her hands clasped in prayer as she gazes towards the Christ Child. The infant Jesus, held by the Virgin Mary, reaches out to place a ring on Saint Catherine's finger, signifying their mystical union. Mary is seated on the left, wearing a pink robe and a dark blue or green mantle, with a halo above her head. Saint Joseph stands behind her, looking on with a gentle expression. Above, in a celestial realm depicted with soft clouds, several angels are present, witnessing the sacred event. The setting includes architectural elements such as columns and a window, suggesting an interior space that opens to a heavenly vision. A martyr's palm and an open book, often attributes of Saint Catherine, lie on the steps in the foreground. The color palette is rich and warm, and the figures are rendered with delicate features and graceful gestures, characteristic of Fontana's style.
