A vertical photogravure in sepia tones depicts a close-up portrait of Lútakawi, an older man with a medium-dark skin tone. Facing slightly to our right, his weathered face is etched with deep lines and a furrowed brow. He wears a patterned cloth headband and a thick, textured garment. Soft focus blurs the background. Capitalized text at the bottom reads, "LÚTAKAWI, ZUÑI GOVERNOR."
