A Native American man, identified as Jack Chapman, stands by a ford, or stream crossing, with his family, two horses, and a carriage. He wears Euro-American clothing and holds a baby in a cradleboard. A Native American woman sits in the carriage and wears a shawl and a dress. Two younger Native Americans stand with one of the horses, which bears a brand. They wear blankets or capote coats. One of them wears earrings and a necklace.
