A woman in a light-colored dress holds a baby in a bonnet, both looking towards the left
A vertical composition features a woman holding a baby, positioned slightly to the right of the center against a dark, plain background. The woman, shown from the waist up, faces left with her head turned slightly, her gaze directed towards the left. She has dark, curly hair styled elaborately and adorned with small, sparkling elements, possibly jewels or flowers, forming a crown-like arrangement. Her complexion is fair, and she wears long, dangling earrings and a multi-strand pearl necklace that drapes across her chest. Her dress is light-colored, likely white or cream, with sheer, puffed sleeves and a low, rounded neckline. A dark brooch with a gold element is pinned to her chest, and an orange and blue sash crosses diagonally over her torso. A gold bracelet is visible on her right wrist, which supports the baby. She cradles a baby in her arms, held against her left side. The baby also faces left, looking in the same direction as the woman. It wears a white gown and a white bonnet with a ruffled or lace edge. A light blue and white striped sash is draped across the baby's chest. The baby has fair skin and rosy cheeks. The background is a muted, dark brown or grey, providing a stark contrast to the light-colored clothing of the figures. The lighting appears to come from the upper left, highlighting the faces and the front of their attire.
