The sculpture shows a seated figure holding a child, surrounded by two smaller winged figures. The subject is central with a prominent position in the composition, flanked by columns. The sculpture is crafted in a gold color, possibly a metal like brass or gilded. The figure at the top of the triangular pediment appears to be holding a scroll, flanked by two small figures. The sculpture features detailed patterns etched into the background and framework, including repeated geometric designs and motifs. The expression and posture of the figures suggest a calm and composed arrangement.
