The image is an engraving depicting four figures in a circular composition. Each figure is shown from the waist up. In the center, two young children are seated and facing forward. The child on the left has curly hair, and the child on the right appears to be holding something. To the left and right of the children are two women who seem to be caregivers. The woman on the left is shown in profile wearing a head covering and a long-sleeved garment. She looks towards the other woman while holding the child. The woman on the right is slightly turned towards the viewer, also dressed in flowing garments and a head covering, and appears to hold the other child. Behind the woman on the left, an older man with a bearded face and serious expression looks over the group. He wears a head scarf and holds a staff. The background features a simple engraved texture, and the scene is enclosed within a circular frame. Below the circle, there is a section with a coat of arms and some text.
