Manuel's attention to detail is evident in the meticulous rendering of the workshop's interior, the textures of the materials, and the expressions of the figures. The painting not only serves as a devotional image but also provides a glimpse into the working conditions and practices of Renaissance artisans. The interplay of light and shadow, along with the careful composition, highlights Manuel's skill in creating a sense of depth and realism.
