The woman has short hair, a long dress with a high neckline, and her right arm extends over a child's head. Her left hand rests on the shoulder of a child to her right. The child to her left has long hair, a dress, and a bag slung over their right shoulder. The child to her right has short hair, a long dress, and holds a pot with both hands. A child with short hair and a short dress stands between the woman and the child with long hair, their left hand on the woman's right hand. The woman's right hand touches the child's head. The background of the plaque features a wall with a doorway and decorative carvings. The plaque has a French phrase at the bottom: "Laissez venir à nous les petits enfants".
