Detailed Description
This oval-shaped image depicts a woman holding a baby, accompanied by two other children, set against a landscape. The woman, positioned slightly left of center, has fair skin and light hair styled in an updo. She wears a red dress with long sleeves and a dark blue cloak draped over her shoulders and left arm, secured by a dark belt. Her gaze is directed downwards towards the baby she cradles in her arms. The baby, with fair skin and light hair, looks slightly to the left. To the right of the baby are two other children. A young boy with curly brown hair, wearing a purple garment, stands to the right of the baby, looking upwards towards it. Behind him, the head of another child with light, curly hair is visible, looking upwards and to the right. The background features a rolling green landscape with a winding path and distant structures on the left. On the right, jagged, light-colored mountains rise under a pale blue sky with scattered clouds. In the lower left foreground, the woman's left arm rests on a carved wooden armrest, over which a patterned fabric is draped.
