The image depicts a black and white drawing of a religious scene. The Virgin Mary sits on a rock, wearing a long robe and a halo around her head. She holds the infant Jesus on her lap. The infant St. John the Baptist kneels to the right of the infant Jesus. Two angels stand on either side of the Virgin Mary. The angel on the left has large wings and holds a cloth or object in front of him. The angel on the right has smaller wings and folds his hands in front of him. The background consists of a cloudy sky with lines suggesting distance. The figures are drawn with detailed facial expressions and folds in their clothing. The scene appears to be set outdoors on a rocky surface. The drawing style suggests it was created in the Renaissance period.
