This image shows a group of figures arranged like a family, all facing forward. The central woman holds a small child, while another child stands beside her. Two men stand on either side, and small angels float above them. The colors are mostly earthy browns and reds, with gold accents and a pale blue sky behind them. The figures look stiff and flat, with simple shapes and bold outlines. The woman’s crown and the angels’ wings suggest this is a holy scene. The text around the edges is in an old script, likely naming the figures or their roles. Look up cross-hatching next to see how artists create shading with lines.
