Carte-de-visite of Maria Miller Woodhull Hall photographed in bust portrait. Her face is turned one quarter to her right and she looks off camera. She is wearing a black cap with ruffled or ribbon details on the back of her head and a plaid dress with a large oval brooch at her front neck. Hall's head is at the center of the print, with the background behind it fading at the edges in the popular style of the time. There is a double-lined border printed in gold ink surrounding the outside edges of the card mount.
