A vertically oriented, sepia-toned photogravure depicts a Pomo girl from the chest up with a medium-dark skin tone. Looking toward our right, she has dark eyes and wavy hair framing her face. Her mouth is set in a neutral line. She wears multiple strands of thick, light-colored disc-bead necklaces and long, thin cylindrical ornaments hanging from her ears. Soft light illuminates her features against a dark, shadowed background.
