Black and white photograph. Thurlow Lieurance, third person from left, sits with three Native American Indians in a prairie-like landscape. He is leaning on his left hand while the Native American on the right holds a piece of paper and the one on the left points to something on the paper. The Native American furthest to the left plays a wooden flute. He wears a large head decoration made of feathers.
