This print shows two people: a woman and a child. The woman is kneeling, leaning forward towards the bottom left corner, with her hands on a small black table or grinding stone. She has light brown skin and her dark hair is pulled back into two braids or ponytails. She is wearing a long white garment, and a white cloth is slung around her shoulders, carrying the child on her back. The child also has light brown skin and short, black hair, and they are asleep, with one of their hands brought up to their mouth. The child is also wearing white clothing. Beneath the woman, the floor is made of red tiles with lines of light gray in between them, and the wall behind her is light gray.
