A print on beige-colored paper of a woman depicting a woman at not quite half-length with her hair up, with her left elbow on some kind of sill as her arm wraps around the front of the child at the left of the artwork, who holds an apple in their right hand. Mother and child both direct their gaze in front of them, not at the viewer but as though at some object or scene beyond the viewer.

At the front, to the viewer's left, sits a dark-haired Virgin Mary in a red dress with a gold shawl. The Christ Child, wearing only a gauzy drape, stands on her left knee, with his right leg straight and left knee bent as he leans over to pick a flower from a basket held out to him by a kneeling angel in white, positioned at the front of the painting to the viewer's right. In the shadowy back of the painting Joseph leans over a wall on which his crossed hands rest, gazing at the scene in front of him. A long staff of some kind leans against his body and extends into the space beyond his left shoulder.
