Description: Standing portrait of a Ponca Indian man in photographer's studio. He is wearing jewelry, including earrings, necklaces and ring.
Title from Ingalls’ original envelope. Note: Ingalls identifies him as Ponca, but possibly he is Kaw (or Kansa). Portraits that appear to have been taken at the same time are credited to photographer Charles M. Bell (Washington D.C.), and titled "Eagle Plume, Kaw chief" (Source: Princeton University Digital Library).
