Description
An outside photograph of what has been identified as the Umatilla Inidan Reservation. A tipi can be seen on the right side of the photograph with a striped cloth or blanket serving as a door. The cloth or blanket is pushed aside, revealing an open entry. A person sits on the ground in front of the tipi's open entry with legs stretched out and a rifle placed across the lap. The person is wearing a hat with a circular brim and what appears to be Euro-American clothing. To the right of the tipi's open entry is dark horse with a white stripe down its face and white trim above its hooves. A person sits on the horse using a saddle with feet in the stirrups and hands holding the reins. The person is wearing what appears to be Euro-American clothing with a long coat and big sleeves and a hat with circular brim. To the left of the tipi sits a person wrapped in a solid-color blanket. To the left of the person stands a white horse without saddle. The foreground of the tipi displays terrain of dirt, leaves, and possible artifacts. A log can be viewed and enters the photograph from the left side. Behind the tipi is a cluster of very tall, leafy trees, medium-sized shrubs, and wild grasses. Traces of sky can be viewed behind the trees. [Tipi of Shev-ships, Umatilla Indian reservation.]
