Panel painting of an enthroned older woman reading, with a younger woman and child, surrounded by a friar, kneeling donors, nuns and angels.

Saint Anne with the Virgin and Christ Child, with founders and saints

An enthroned older woman in a red mantle and black veil reads an open book, while a younger woman in green holds a small Christ child on her lap beside her. Around the throne, a friar with raised hands, kneeling donors and nuns in white wimples frame the scene beneath crimson drapery and angels.
