A vertically oriented photogravure in sepia tones on tan paper depicts a person with medium-dark skin standing atop wooden stairs. Facing right in profile, the figure leans against a textured adobe wall wearing a fringed garment. Another wall rises to the right with two long poles angling toward a clouded sky. The scene is bathed in warm light, leaving the figure in shadow. Below, text reads, "THE KIVA STAIRS—SAN ILDEFONSO."
