A vertically oriented sepia-toned photogravure depicts a person with deeply lined, weathered skin from the chest up, head tilted slightly toward our right. They have a furrowed brow and a mouth set in a firm line. They wear a light-colored, polka-dotted headscarf tied low and a heavy, textured fur garment. In the lower left, their hand clutches the fur, with soft light illuminating the right side of their face.
