A vertically oriented drypoint print in black ink with fine, cross-hatched lines depicts an older woman with light skin tone in profile, facing right. She wears a head kerchief and a voluminous cloak draped over large wooden clogs, standing on a cobblestone street. Cross-hatched lines shade the half-timbered houses lining the background. Handwritten text "(only state)" and the signature "Gillette French '31" appear in the lower margin.
