She holds the baby close to her chest, while the two saints stand on either side, looking on with reverence. The painting is done in warm, muted colors, with a focus on the figures in the foreground. The background is dark and shadowy, which helps to highlight the subjects. The overall effect is one of quiet devotion and contemplation.
