The image shows two figures in the foreground. One is a woman seated on a low bench, facing to the right. She has a serene expression and her hair is covered. She wears a draped garment and her hand rests near her chest. The second figure is an angelic being kneeling on one knee, facing towards the seated woman. The angel has flowing hair, detailed wings, and holds a stem of flowers. In the background, there are cherubic figures among clouds with a radiant light at the center emanating from a dove. Beams of light surround the figures. A table on the left corner holds a book, a basket with circular objects, and some writing is visible.
