The image shows two figures in a medieval-style illustration. The larger figure is carrying the smaller figure on their shoulders. The larger figure has a beard and wears a draped garment with blue and gold fabric, while the smaller figure holds a globe with a cross on top and has short hair and a halo. Both figures are surrounded by a decorative frame with floral and vine patterns in green and red, against a parchment-like background. The larger figure holds a staff and they are moving through a wavy pattern suggestive of flowing water.
