A sepia-toned photogravure depicts a man with a medium skin tone seated in a dark, textured kayak, looking directly at us. He is enveloped in a voluminous white fur parka with dark shoulder straps. His dark hair is parted above a thin mustache. One hand grips a long wooden paddle crossing the boat diagonally against a soft, hazy background. A wide cream margin with bottom text borders the print.
