The painting depicts a scene with several figures. The central figure is a woman with red hair wearing a red dress and blue shawl, surrounded by a halo, sitting and holding a baby with a halo. The baby is naked and lying on a white cloth. To the left, a balding man with a halo, wearing a blue shirt and orange robe, kneels and gazes at the baby. To the right, an older man with white hair and an orange shirt crouches and holds a basket. Another man stands beside him, holding a sheep. Above, several cherubs appear among clouds, with one cherub holding a flower. A bearded man peers down from the clouds on the top left. The background is dark, with a window visible on the right side.
