The image shows a woman holding a baby against her shoulder. The woman is seen from the back and waist up, with her face and hair covered. The baby has curly hair and a peaceful expression, resting against the woman's cheek. The woman is dressed in a long-sleeved garment with a cinched waist, while the baby is wrapped in cloth with bare feet showing. In the background, there is a rural landscape with hills, trees, and a ladder-like structure to the left, sketched in a simple style.
