The image depicts a stylized figure shown from the torso upwards, in a seated or kneeling position with an expressionless face that sets a calm atmosphere. The figure has elongated facial features and a serene expression. The hair is dark and smooth, concealed by a headdress with red circular elements. Draped over the figure is a dark cloak, complementing a brown, patterned gown with a rounded silhouette. On either side of the figure, there are two tall, red candles, each on a thin base, burning with a small flame. The background is a simple brown, providing a plain setting that highlights the central figure and the two candles. There is also a decorative halo around the head.
