This black and white photograph represents a closely cropped image of a white woman's face. She looks to her left. The top of her head is cropped out of the image, but a bright piece of jewelry can be seen in her hair (or possibly on a hat). She wears a large diamond and pearl earring on her right ear and a three-strand pearl necklace. The right shoulder of her dark coat can be seen in the lower left of the image.

This image is created with black ink on cream paper. Train tracks stretch from the foreground to the background of the composition, with a few small buildings in the foreground at the left and right of the image. Only a few trains can be seen in front of the train station building, which is pictured at the center left of the image with two towers and a great dome. The sky is clear.
