A horizontally oriented photogravure in sepia tones depicts six children with medium skin tones sitting on a grassy slope. They wear thick, shaggy fur parkas. In the back, a youth on our left looks toward us beside two smaller children. In the foreground, three children sit; the one in the center gazes down toward their lap. The text NUNIVAK CHILDREN is printed in the lower margin on our left.
