The image depicts a seated angel. The angel is positioned with one knee raised and the other leg bent beneath them, and the upper body slightly turned to the side. The face of the angel, seen in profile, shows delicate features with a prominent nose, closed lips, and short hair. The angel is wearing a flowing robe and a large circular halo is behind the head. The angel is holding a scroll in their right hand and the left hand rests on the knee. The background is plain with a simple outline enclosing the angel in a clover or quatrefoil shape.
