Her head rests on a gold and blue cushion. A young man in yellow is bending over to kiss her forehead. A young girl in a dull-purple dress with yellow and red sleeves and black hair is opposite another in white, with long brown hair. Behind her, a monk in brown gown and hood is carrying a long, lit candle with a red and purple escutcheon. In the background we see two children, green fields with dark trees, and low blue hills in the distance.
