A rectangular sepia photogravure depicts a Hopi girl with medium-light skin in profile, facing right. Her hair is parted centrally and styled into two large, circular coils above her ears. She wears many strands of white beads over a dark, textured garment draped across her shoulders, featuring knotted ties. Her eyes are cast downward with a neutral expression. The portrait sits against a plain background with printed text along the top and bottom margins.
