The image shows four people. Two women are seated on the ground, one holding a child, while a young boy kneels in front of them. The woman on the right has stylized hair tied back and a halo above her head. She is dressed in a long gown and has her hands together. The woman beside her is wearing a headdress and looking down at the unclothed child she is holding. The kneeling boy has curly hair, wears a simple garment tied at the waist, and holds a stick with a cross at the top. In the background, there is a palm tree behind the group, a wooden structure to the left, and a hilly landscape with buildings and trees in the distance.
