A vertically oriented photogravure in warm sepia depicts a man with medium skin tone standing on a rocky ledge. Facing left, he wears a loincloth and extends an arm. A towering, layered rock formation rises along the right against a hazy, clouded sky. At the bottom, capitalized text reads THE OFFERING - SAN ILDEFONSO. Small text in the upper left corner reads Plate 586. Soft grain and hazy lighting stylize the composition.
