(Standing Indian Chief)

A painting depicting a profile view of a Native American figure wearing a feathered headdress, a brown leather garment, and a vibrant red skirt. The figure appears to be standing still, and the background is a dark, muted color, which contrasts with the bright red of the skirt.
