The image depicts a woman seated, holding an infant in her arms. Both figures are visible from the shoulders down. The woman is in a side profile, leaning over the child in a nurturing position. She has dark hair styled in an updo and is wearing a long gown with voluminous sleeves and a ruffled collar. The woman sits on a chair, with her feet on a cushioned footstool. The infant is dressed in a gown as well. In the background, a window with curtains drawn to the side reveals foliage outside, allowing light into the room. A side table with an object on it is nearby.
