Description
A Native American man and two Native American girls are standing inside a tipi made of woven mats. The tipi has a pole hung horizontally across the diameter. The man is wearing a cloth shirt, a woven vest and woven belt, pants made from a Pendleton blanket, with a piece of blanket or cloth draped in front, earrings, necklace, and headdress. The two girls are wearing long cloth dresses, with striped blankets draped around them. The older girl has long braids, earrings, and her blanket is fringed on all four sides. The younger girl has on a hat or head scarf. The inside perimeter of the tipi contains blankets, a drum with drum sticks, a rifle, a kettle, a pail, a bowl, and a pile of sticks. There are several objects hanging from the wall, including a leather case with shoulder strap, and some ornamental items, some with fur tails. The pail is only visible in the right-hand photo.
