The person on the left is wearing a tan garment with colorful beadwork and a blue belt, while the person on the right is dressed in a dark brown cloak with decorative trimming and a large jewelry piece around the neck. They both have decorated moccasins, and the person on the right is holding a feather fan. The background features rocky terrain with sparse vegetation, and in the far distance, a small structure or post stands near the horizon under a clear sky with soft clouds.
