The image depicts multiple figures in various poses. In the center, a child lies on the ground with lines radiating from them. A man kneels to the left, facing the child, and a woman kneels to the right. Surrounding them are smaller kneeling, haloed figures with wings. Two additional figures are on the left, one kneeling with a staff, and the other standing. On the right, another figure kneels with a staff, near a donkey and an ox. A dog is in the foreground. The background shows outlines of trees and hills in a minimalist style.
