The painting shows a formal architectural setting with a colonnade and a domed temple inscribed with a Latin phrase, where a crowned ruler in a dark robe greets a richly dressed woman in red. A procession of elegantly attired women and onlookers in red, gold, and green stands along the arcades beneath a checkered marble floor. The work is attributed to Francesco del Cossa and is held by the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
