Beeldbeschrijving
The image shows an etching of two figures: a woman and a baby. The woman is depicted from the waist up, sitting sideways, holding the baby on her lap. The woman has gentle facial features with a calm expression and her hair styled in a bun. The baby has short hair and soft features, also with a peaceful expression. Both figures are dressed in simple garments. The background is a plain surface with vertical lines.
