Only one photographic portrait is included; it is a bust portrait of George Sand taken by Nadar. Pencil inscriptions appear throughout the album below and/or on the verso of each photograph. Other photographs have identification information printed from the negative. Several of the inscriptions are lines of poetry from works by Sir Walter Scott, Lord Byron, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Oliver Wendell Holmes, and Thomas Bailey Aldrich.
