A studio portrait of a young girl seated on a wooden chair, wearing a white dress with ruffled sleeves and a large white bow in her hair. The embossed studio mark in the lower margin reads B.K. Nielsen, Hamm Building, St. Paul. A penciled note on the back addressed to Martha promises a longer letter and ends with the names Opal, Bernice, and Nellie.
