One blanket has horizontal stripes, while the other has vertical. He is sitting on a stool or box and is turned slightly to the left. He is wearing dark trousers and a dark vest over a light shirt and a straw hat with a wide brim and a chin strap. He has a bandana tied around his throat. His hands lay on his lap. His dark hair is parted in the middle and hangs to his shoulders. A tasseled ribbon hanging from the left breast of his vest reads "Quasula, Hualappi[?] Chief".
