A vertically oriented black-and-white photograph depicts the Ulysses S. Grant Memorial with wide stone steps rising from the bottom edge. On the right half, a tall stone pedestal supports a silhouetted equestrian statue facing left. Dark, leafless trees fill the left background. The statue and background are cast in deep shadow against a pale, cloudy sky, while sharp geometric lines mark the bright, tiered platform and steps in the foreground.
