A vertically oriented photogravure portrait in warm brown tones depicts a Hopi woman from the chest up, with medium skin tone in profile facing our left. Her dark hair is styled in a large, circular whorl over her ear. She wears a large hoop earring and a textured garment. Her eyes are downcast amid soft focus and heavy shadows. Text at the bottom left reads "THE HOPI MAIDEN."
