A vertically oriented tempera and gold painting depicts a woman with light skin cradling a naked child. She wears a dark blue cloak over a striped red and white dress. The child touches his mouth with one finger while sitting on her arm. Gold haloes and oak branches with acorns frame them against a gold background. In the foreground, an open book rests on a panel showing significant paint loss at the base.
