The image depicts a woman and a child. The woman sits on the right side and faces left. She has light-colored hair and wears a long dress. Her left arm rests on her knee, and her right hand holds an open book in front of her face, which she appears to be reading. To her left, a child faces right and holds a torch above his head with both hands. The child wears a long-sleeved shirt and a short skirt. The background includes lines suggesting a wall behind the figures. A small "R" is visible on the wall to the left. The image is rendered in shades of brown and appears to be an engraving or print.
