Women and winged children float on clouds in a pale blue sky, within an ornate border
Detailed Description
An oval-shaped composition depicts multiple figures amidst clouds. On the right, a woman in a flowing red and yellow garment floats, holding a round, light-colored object adorned with small flowers. Below her, another figure in green drapery reaches upwards. In the center, a group of three winged children with rosy cheeks fly towards the right. Two of them hold a garland of green leaves and small pink flowers. On the left, a woman with light-colored drapery sits on a dark cloud, looking towards the right, with another figure partially obscured by clouds below her. The figures are surrounded by soft, billowy clouds in shades of grey, white, and light brown, against a pale blue sky. The entire scene is enclosed by a light-colored, multi-layered, curvilinear frame with a scalloped top and bottom edge.
