This painting shows a woman sitting with a baby in her lap. She's wearing a long green and orange dress. The baby is naked. A little boy with a halo is kneeling to the left, holding a long stick with a cross on top. He's also naked. The background is dark, with some green fabric hanging behind the woman. The woman is looking down at the baby, who's looking back at her. The little boy is looking up at the woman and the baby. The whole scene feels quiet and peaceful.
