A polychromed wooden sculpture depicting the Virgin Mary holding the Christ Child is centrally positioned. The Virgin is shown from the chest up, with her head gently tilted downward and to her left, her eyes closed or downcast. She wears a faded reddish-brown head covering, a muted red inner garment, and a desaturated blue-grey outer cloak. Her skin tone is pale with subtle rosy cheeks. The Christ Child is seated securely on her left arm, facing slightly forward and to his right, with his head also turned right, gazing slightly downward. He wears a faded blue tunic with a reddish trim. Both figures exhibit signs of age, including paint loss and surface wear. The sculpture rests on a dark, flat rectangular base. It is displayed within a darkened exhibition space, behind what appears to be a glass barrier, evidenced by reflections on its surface and the indistinct, dark background. This artifact is located within the Louvre-Lens museum in Lens, France.
