The sick nun is sitting in a large chair, his right hand holding a rosary is placed on the arm while the other hand rests on his cheek. A nun is leaning on his chair. On the other side, a little girl wearing a cup on a tray. A teapot is placed at his feet. Two other religious are to the left, near the window, one profile sitting, the other standing, an open book in his hands. A basket with sewing projects and a ball of yarn are on the floor.

Replica of a work commissioned by Count Paolo Tosio in 1830 now kept at Brescia Museum, the painting may have been exhibited at the Salon of 1831 under the title "Religious patient receiving care in her convent" (No. 983). It shows a little known aspect of the talent of the painter, the subtle chronicler of the monastic life of his time.
