The image shows three figures in a pose. The central figure, a woman, is seated with her arms stretched upwards and legs bent. She has delicate facial features, wavy hair, and wears a loose-fitting garment. Behind her is an aged figure, slightly hunched, with a hood covering part of their head, raising a long, thin object. To the right, a child is sitting on the ground, holding a crutch-like object and looking downward. The background is plain, with a textured appearance.
