The sculpture depicts a seated woman holding a child. The woman is dressed in a dark blue and red cloak, while the child is partially nude. Both figures have light skin tones, with the woman having brown hair and the child having short, curly hair. Golden halos surround their heads. The sculpture is within a rectangular frame, possibly made of wood or plaster with gold leaf accents. The frame has fluted columns with capitals and a triangular pediment with a circular emblem. The overall style is classic and ornate, with intricate details on the garments, facial expressions, and posture suggesting serenity and reverence.
