The image of the Mother of God with the Child Christ, who blesses with his right hand, belongs to the Hodegetria type (from the Greek "She Who Shows the Way"). The Mother of God is shown half-length, in a three-quarter turn to the right. She wears a gold-toned maphorion and a green shirt-like garment, with a gold-and-red crown on her head. On the Mother of God's chest, within a yellow disc, is a depiction of a dove on a red rhombus with concave sides, the rhombus overlaid on a quadrilateral with concave sides. With her left hand the Mother of God supports the Child; her right hand touches a gold-toned cross shown within a green oval at waist level. The Infant Christ is shown nearly full-length (to the feet), in a three-quarter turn to the left, wearing a red chiton, with a gold-and-red crown on his head. Christ blesses with his right hand and holds the Gospel in his left. Above their heads are halos. The background is golden. Upper right: "Eleusa" (Tenderness). The composition follows the Eleusa scheme: the Mother of God tenderly presses her cheek to Christ's cheek. The Mother of God is shown three-quarter length, in a three-quarter turn to the left; she wears a gold-toned maphorion and a green shirt-like garment. With her right hand she embraces the Infant Christ's shoulders, supporting him from below with her left.

Against the golden background are half-length images of Jesus Christ and the Mother of God. Around Saint Nicholas's head is a halo. Lower right: "Saint Boniface." The saint is shown half-length, frontally. He wears a red chiton and green himation. In his raised right hand he holds a cross, his left touching the himation at waist level.
