This painting shows three women and a young child. The women are dressed in long dresses, with the woman on the left wearing a reddish-brown dress and the woman on the right wearing a greenish-beige dress. The child is wearing a white dress and is being held by the woman on the right. The women are looking directly at the viewer, while the child is looking down. The background of the painting is dark, which helps to highlight the figures in the foreground. The painting is framed in an ornate gold frame, which adds to its overall elegance.
