Saint Thomas of Villanova (1486-1555) was a Spanish Augustinian friar, canonized in 1658, known for his sensitivity towards the poor. Here he is shown at his earliest age distributing among poor children the clothes he was wearing.
In this work, the artist's growing tendency to use the "misty style" begins to be appreciated, which consists of blurring the contours of the figures, presenting them with a slight appearance of transparency, but without losing realism.
