Black and white image of half a dozen people sitting on a porch in front of a shingled cabin. The porch is simply a deck with no railing or other decoration. Three women sit on the porch around a man with a young child standing in between his knees. Another man sits in a chair to the right of the image, while a third stands to the image left of the porch. Pine trees and a post-and-pole fence are visible in the background.
Women and children from the Ennis, Landess and Ingram families of Oregon, "playing Indians," according to a note on the back of the photograph. They are posed in clothing that they apparently believed looked Native American. The older children have blankets around their shoulders, and the boys have feathers in their hats and hold guns. Three girls wear skirts and have their heads covered; two or three small children play in the foreground. One girl kneels with a hatchet, looking at a tree. A triangular heap of tree branches, which may have been intended to look like a tipi, appears in the background.
