The image shows two figures seated. The person on the left appears to be reading, with an open book in front of them. They have wavy hair and delicate features, wearing a long garment. The person on the right, likely an angel, faces the left figure with one hand raised and holding a staff. They have curly hair and wear a detailed robe, with wings visible. The background shows a domestic setting with a curtain, a shelf with books, a flask, and a mirror or decorative element with light or a dove emanating from it. In the upper right, an architectural scene with distant buildings and cloudy shapes is depicted, where cherubic figures can be seen.
