The photograph is printed in sepia coloration that shows a conglomeration of western carts and onlookers to a gathering thanks to the Crow Agency.

He was noted for photographing Calamity Jane in 1885 and the Little Big Horn battlefield in 1894. This photograph is marked in the negative and shows a wonderful detailed image with several lodge / tipi’s surrounded by horses with a parade of Montana Crow on horseback in full regalia at the foreground, with a whole group with the traditional umbrella’s and beaded umbrella’s in the center and in the background rows of Crow lodges / tipi’s set in front of the Montana hills.
