Description
Photographic portrait of an old Chemehuevi Indian man smoking, ca.1900. From the chest up. He is outside. He is wearing a somewhat tattered hat, a button-up striped shirt over underwear, under a jacket. His hair sticks out unevenly at both sides of his head. A cigarette or cigar hangs out of the corner of his mouth under a large grey moustache. His head is tilted slightly up, revealing his throat, as he looks directly into the camera.
