The image portrays the upper half of a woman's body alongside a cherubic figure. The woman is in a seated position, with her torso slightly turned to the side. Her facial features are depicted with soft shading, with a calm expression, her hair styled in an updo, partially covered by a cloth. She is holding a rose in one hand with detailed petals visible. The cherubic figure leans against her, with curly hair and small wings visible. Both figures are unclothed apart from a drape around the woman’s lower body. The background consists of a textured, abstract pattern.
