Three figures stand on a rock formation in the background of this piece behind St. Anthony and St. Thomas, who are clothed in black and a green and red robe, respectively. The patron's wife and daughter, Maria Maddalena and Margherita, are depicted praying in another portion of this work next to a body of water, while two figures, one holding a candle and another in red reading, stand over them. Set in the ruins of King David's palace, a flowerpot sits in the foreground of the central panel of this work. It depicts an elderly Joseph praying to the left while two angels clad in light blue sit just to the right of Mary, who gazes adoringly over the Christchild. Commisioned by the Medici Bank's representative in Bruges, for 10 points, idenitfy this work for the Church of Saint Egidio in the hospital of the Santa Maria Nuova, an alterpiece completed by Hugo van der Goes.
