On each side of the Virgin is a group of adoring angels; at her feet kneels the diminutive figure of Pope Paschal. The infant Christ stands upon her knee; she has one hand on her bosom and sustains him with the other. On the façade of the portico of the S. Maria-in-Trastevere at Rome, the Virgin is enthroned, and crowned, and giving her breast to the Child.
Christ is seated on a throne and the Virgin kneels before him; he bends forwards, and tenderly takes her clasped hands in both his own. An empty throne is at the right hand of Christ, over which hovers an angel bearing a crown. This is the moment which precedes the Coronation, as the group already described in the S. Maria-in-Trastevere exhibits the moment which follows the Coronation.
