The image depicts four individuals. The adult male is standing at the center, wearing traditional clothing with feathers in his long black hair. He holds a fur piece. On his left, an adult female stands holding a child's hand. The child wears minimal clothing. On the right side of the male, two young individuals stand facing each other. They wear tunics with fringes. The background shows a light blue sky, green foliage, and brown ground. The scene is painted in an oval frame on a neutral-toned surface.
