The sculpture depicts a seated female figure holding a bunch of grapes, accompanied by a small child-like figure holding a staff with an orb at the top. The woman has long, flowing hair and appears to be adorned with a band on her upper arm. The child, perched on the woman's knee, has curly hair and an innocent expression. They both appear intertwined with foliage and flowing drapery that cascades down from the female figure's form. The sculpture is a roundel, carved in bas-relief, and is made from a warm, terracotta-colored material. The sculpture presents itself as a finely detailed and harmonious composition with a soft and gentle aesthetic.
