The work is part of Giotto's so-called Paduan classicism, which in the painter's artistic development represents the moment when his language appears most idealized and solemn. A learned friar from the Convent of the Humiliati likely advised the great artist to fully express the various theological implications addressed in the work.
The Madonna's white robe, for example, alluding to her virginity, is relatively uncommon in Florentine painting but features prominently in the Scrovegni frescoes.
