A Native American woman identified as "Mrs. Black Hawk" of the Cayuse tribe stands in front of a tule reed mat tipi. There is snow on the ground and on parts of the tipi. Five poles are visible, and on the left side of the photograph is a wooden ladder made of poles and boards. The canvas entry of the tipi is tied back and the woman stands with her feet inside, slightly leaning out. Her long dark hair hangs below her waist in two braids; she wears a choker necklace, and a rounded earring is visible. She wears a long dark cloth wing dress with wide sections of lighter beading that run across the bodice and shoulders and onto the sleeves. A longer sleeve of floral material from a shirt or underdress is visible as she holds up her left hand. Around her waist is a wide beaded belt, and it looks like another beaded belt is hanging from it. In her left hand she holds a strip of material beaded in floral patterns and embellished with a strip of fur which has round medallions or shell discs sewn on at regular intervals. On her right side hangs a multicolored striped and fringed blanket; with her right hand she seems to be holding or pushing aside a dark bag or curtain trimmed with a light floral-patterned material. Propped against a low log or board at the entrance to the tipi are two flat bags beaded with geometric patterns. Under them, and taking up the left foreground of the photo, is a striped blanket.
