The painting depicts a framed oil on canvas artwork. The frame is gold with an ornate design. The painting shows three people, a woman and two children. The woman sits on the ground wearing a red robe and a green headscarf. She has her right arm around a small child who sits to her left. The child wears a white shirt and a yellow cloth around his waist. He has dark hair and rests his head on the woman's right arm. Above them, to the right, is another child with curly hair wearing green and red clothing with large wings, possibly an angel. The background of the painting is dark and cloudy. The woman and the child on the ground look up at the winged child.
