At the top, a cluster of cherubic children with pale skin and golden hair floats on white and gray clouds, some holding a pale banner and a pale cross, and a white dove is overhead against a light blue sky. In the middle and lower areas, a seated woman with fair skin wears garments in deep blue, pink, and purple and holds a small child with fair skin and golden hair who is mostly nude; nearby, a man with darker hair and a beard leans forward wearing robes in brown and orange. Around them are several children and youths with fair skin wearing garments in muted tones of yellow, beige, green, and pink, some holding fruit and a basket. A kneeling child in rough brown clothing looks upward at the seated woman. The background includes distant blue-gray mountains, a thatched structure in brown, and areas of green foliage and trees. Foreground details include rocks, golden-brown grasses, and a small stone water channel with flowing water. The overall palette features blues, pinks, purples, browns, greens, golds, and pale skin tones.
