This painting shows a woman holding a baby. The woman wears a dark robe with a red undergarment and a halo behind her head. The baby is nude and sits on the woman's lap, with one hand raised. The background is a landscape with hills, trees, and buildings. The sky is dark, suggesting a nighttime scene. The artist used chiaroscuro to create depth and contrast in the painting.
