Bird Chief on horseback and carrying a feather fan, talks with two women. One of the women carries an axe indicating that the two have been out collecting firewood. She wears a cloth dress with a shawl around her waist and a concho belt. The other woman has a plaid shawl wrapped around her waist. In courtship, men often tried to meet women who were away from the camp doing chores such as getting water or collecting firewood for moments of privacy.
