A young girl wearing elegant clothing is in the center of the print. She is wearing a headband which is keeping the hair out of her eyes. She is gazing down at a globe with a shy smile on her face. While gazing at the globe, she is resting her arm on the front part of it at the same time. At the bottom of the print are several lines of text. In the lower left and right hand corners are names which appear to be the artist's signatures. In the bottom center of the print, there is text that reads as follows: 'Geography' with additional print below it which is too small to read due to its size.
