A horizontally oriented photogravure in muted brown and tan tones depicts Apsaroke men with medium-dark skin on horseback in a field. On our left, a man on a white horse wears a large feathered headdress. To our right, two men on darker horses face away toward our left, wearing feathered headpieces with long, patterned trailers. A hazy sky sits above the horizon line, while textured, leafy plants fill the foreground.
