Description de l’image
The image shows three seated figures arranged beneath an ornate archway. In the center, a woman holds a child on her lap with both having halos. To her right, a figure holds a sword and leans towards her. To her left, another figure holds a tower-like structure and a green palm frond. All figures wear long tunics in shades of red. The archway is decorated with floral embellishments and green foliage.
