La Regina della Notte e della Luna2004-200563 1/4 x 79 in.(160,66 x 200,66 cm) óleo sobre lienzo

La Reina de la Noche bebe agua de las manos abrazadas de la fe, mientras dos pastores se abrazan sin saber del nacimiento de Jesús. Los ángeles, retratados casi translúcidamente sobre el lienzo, rocían agua bendita y provocan la entrega de regalos. Una joya preciosa está representada en la esquina derecha, mientras que una humilde cesta de pavos se sienta en la capa de la Virgen. Cerca se encuentra una canasta con un jilguero, un símbolo antiguo, que es un presagio de buena suerte para los recién nacidos. El niño Jesús, así como las manos entrelazadas de las que bebe la Reina, representan la fe - los ángeles han rociado con agua bendita y pronto se dará a conocer al mundo:

"Para mí la fe en la religión se convierte en fe en la pintura y vencerá a los gigantes". - Max Pellegrini, julio de 2015, en conversación con el curador Chip Tom
