A vertically oriented oil painting depicts a still life against a pale stone wall. To the left, a stylized ivory figurine of a woman and child stands on a red base amidst crumpled yellow fabric. Behind it, a framed crucifixion scene leans against a gold-patterned textile. To the right, a smooth white vase sits on a dark tabletop. Broad, visible brushstrokes and a muted palette emphasize the scene's varied textures.
