Descrizione dell’immagine
The image depicts two adults and a child. One adult, wearing a blue garment and brown overcoat, sits on a donkey while facing forward and holding the donkey's reins. The other adult, in a red robe with a blue lining, is seated behind them and holds a child on their lap. The child is wrapped in a white cloth with a halo. The adult on the donkey has a beard and wears a hood, while the other adult has a halo behind their head and hair covered by a veil. The adult on the donkey appears to be holding a stick or staff. The background features trees, a landscape, a path, and a blue sky.
