Just behind her on the Tule mat/ canvas tipi is a blanket that is stretched out; there are seven black and white stripes. On the tipi there are a total of ten poles on the outside of the tipi to keep the mats down. There is a part of a ladder in the top left corner of the photograph. Writing on the photograph is "Petints, Walla Walla Tribe" which is on the bottom of the blanket and on her right side. On the other side of her is the words "Maj. Moorhouse".
