The image is a black-and-white photograph of a young girl, identified as Victoria Talme, standing in a marshy area known as Whites Bog in Browns Mills, New Jersey. The girl is wearing a long-sleeved dress that reaches down to her ankles, and she has a scarf tied around her neck. She is looking directly at the camera with a serious expression on her face.
In the background, several wooden structures and machinery are visible, indicating that this area was used for industrial purposes. The ground beneath the girl's feet is uneven and marshy, with tall grasses and reeds growing up around her. A body of water is visible in the distance, and several trees are scattered throughout the image.
