| General Notes | An outside photograph of two Native American women posing in front of a plain blanket backdrop. They are standing on a round flat coiled cedar root mat that is on a Pendleton blanket. To the right of the backdrop is a wooden walkway. In the background are deciduous trees and the hazy outlines of miscellaneous buildings. Both women have their hair in braids and are wearing cornhusk hats with a "v-shaped" geometric design. The woman on the pair's left has been identified as Ruth Coyote; she is dressed in a fringed, short-sleeve, beaded buckskin dress. Decorative beads are attached to the fringes on her shirtsleeves, knee and hem areas. She is wearing a necklace and a choker. She has bracelets on both arms and an armband on her left arm. She has a beaded belt and is holding a beaded bag in her left hand with the design of a deer. From under her dress can be seen leggings and beaded moccasins. The woman on the right is wearing circular earrings, and a cloth dress with decorative beads that extend below her waist. There are beads on her shoulders and bells at the end of her three-quarter length sleeves. She has a wide beaded belt. She has a bracelet on her right wrist and is holding a cornhusk bag in her right hand. She has beaded moccasins and may have bells at the hem of her dress. |
