A pictorial-style bookplate in black ink on ivory paper with a thick black border.

In the distance across a body of water is a mountain with rays of light emanating from it. In the foreground there is a tree with flowers and ferns at its base. Within the border is the text "Ex libris Maria Zeitlinger." On the back is a handwritten note reading "From Herman Seidl, Austria."
