DescriptionA small naked child is seated on cloud. Drapery is wrapped around his back and lies across his lap. His right hand is raised. His left arm rests on a globe of the world. He holds a small cross in his left hand. Rays of light emanate from behind him. The figure is framed by an oval garland of roses and morning glories with their buds and leaves.
