A vertically oriented etching on beige paper depicts a woman and a young child, both with light skin tones. The woman is positioned behind the child, leaning her head down with eyes closed. The child sits in profile facing our right with closed eyes and a bow at their neck. Fine lines and cross-hatching define their features and clothing, set against a plain background.
