Two figures are depicted in a full-length portrait. The individual on the left is seated slightly behind the other person, with a hand on the other's shoulder and holding a staff with feathers. They have dark hair styled into a mohawk with red accents and feathers, deep-set eyes, and prominent cheekbones. The person is adorned in ceremonial attire, including a feathered headdress, a cloak, and beadwork, with a large medallion around their neck. In front sits a younger person with dark hair, bead necklaces, a medallion, lighter-colored clothing with beadwork, and red leggings. Both are seated on rocky terrain with surrounding greenery, against a neutral backdrop showcasing the vivid colors and intricate details of their attire.
