A horizontally oriented sepia photogravure depicts a large, circular lodge draped in light-colored cloth. Centered, a tall cluster of wooden poles emerges from the roof, topped with leafy branches. In the middle ground, groups gather around the structure, including a line of men in brimmed hats standing near an entrance. A vast grassy field fills the foreground, with capitalized text at the bottom reading "CHEYENNE SUN-DANCE LODGE."
