- Description
- A Native American woman, dressed in Native American costume, is seated on a chair, in front of a wall filled with various Native American artifacts. The woman is wearing a headdress with horns and feathers, a beaded buckskin dress with beaded fringe, beaded leggings, and floral design moccasins. She has long braids, a beaded choker and beaded necklace, a shell necklace, copper bracelets, a ring, and is holding a beaded bag. A Pendleton blanket is draped over the chair. Hanging from the wall are assorted feathers and knives, decorative cords with tassels, posters, a photograph, swords with scabbards, floral design cradleboards, a horse bridle with reins, woven bags, a beaded floral design glove or gauntlet, leather goods, beadwork, a walking stick, and a tanned animal hide on which is painted a Native American man. There are several items on the floor, including another blanket, a bow and two empty quivers (one beaded, one plain), a tomahawk decorated with a fur tail, more loose feathers, and a woven basket.

- An interior photograph of an unidentified woman sitting in a chair in regalia. She is wearing a dress that belongs to Major Moorhouse. She is also wearing a headdress with feathers that looks like a bonnet. At the base of the feathers is a fur headband with some kind of horns. This is a collection that Major Moorhouse has collected. Some of these objects also appear in some other Major Moorhouse photographs. Some of the objects are hanging on the wall and around her feet.
