Figure descriptions
Illustration is divided into two sections. In the top section, an angel kneels and
embraces a woman, who gestures with her
hands toward the bottom section of the illustration. Light emits from the angel’s
head in a halo. Cherubs surround the angel and the
woman on both sides. Many of the cherubs play musical instruments such as the triangle,
the horn, and the harp. Three cherubs with
floral crowns gather below and adjacent to the central figures. These three cherubs
look downward and gesture toward the bottom
section of the illustration. A band of white light separates the two sections. In
the bottom section, a haloed angel leans over a
canopy bed and picks up a small boy. The boy looks up and embraces her. His toys lie
beside the bed. Both angels wear floral
crowns. 3/4-page illustration contained within a single-ruled border. The border extends
in a semi-circle along the top edge to
accommodate the first angel’s halo.
