Three individuals are shown in full length. The person on the left is sitting, with a large, rounded hat and long, flowing hair. They are reaching out with one hand to the middle person. This seated individual is clothed in a long, draped garment. The middle person is standing and appears to be performing some form of gesture with their hands towards the seated person, wearing a hood and a long cloak, with long hair visible. The third person is on the right, standing, holding a child and wearing a cap, with facial features partially visible, dressed in a long, striped garment. The background consists of a few simplistic buildings and trees.
