The wrist and sleeve of an adult is partially visible behind the right-hand edge of the curtain. Below the image is text, printed in ink along the bottom margin, that reads [John Green, - Corner of 18th and/ Market Streets - Denver Colo.]. The back of the photograph contains an inscription that identifies the subject and date of the photograph.
