- Description:
- Close up portrait of an older Pomo man, with bronzed skin and salt-and-pepper hair and Van Dyke beard. The man is looking down his left shoulder into the camera, and is crinkling his forehead; his eyes are in shadow. He wears two-tone light-and-dark fur over his shoulders, which matches the tones of his own hair. The portrait is close enough that the top of the man's head is outside the frame.
- Notes:
- From the "The North American Indian," volume 14.
