Black and white image. The scene depicts a religious figure in a landscape setting. The figure on the right sits and holds a naked baby on her lap. She wears long clothing with her hair up. A figure on the left kneels and holds a cross. The figure behind the one on the right sits, covered in a head covering. A palm tree stands behind the figures on the left. The background shows a large body of water, buildings across the water, and some mountains. The scene includes two people on the right side of the foreground, a kneeling person on the left side of the foreground, and a tree on the left. There are hills and a building on the right side in the background. The sky takes up a portion of the top of the image. The image style resembles an engraving.
