Virgin and Child with Saint John (recto)
The Virgin Mary wearing a pink dress and blue hooded cloak, her hands clasped in prayer, looks down at the infant Jesus lying on a pillow. The baby has curly hair and a patterned cloth around his waist. A young John the Baptist stands to the left with curly hair and a brown tunic holding a cross-shaped staff in one hand and finger to his lips. He looks towards the Virgin. The background is old and stained paper with darker spots and faint handwriting. The image is framed by a gold border.
