A vertically oriented oil painting depicts the Virgin Mary with the nude baby Christ in her lap, both with light skin tones. Mary wears a white veil, red dress, and blue cloak, looking down as Christ reaches toward her chest while resting on a yellow cushion. Behind them, blue drapery and dark panels flank views of a landscape with water and buildings visible through openings on the left and right.
