Summary

Description
Arapaho camp

View of Camp Showing Three Girls and Group of Men in Native Dress, One Man with Hairpipe Breastplate and Pipe-Tomahawk Outside Tipis; Tipis in Background 1867-75.[1]

The Soule album identifies this simply as an Arapaho camp. The tipis are in an open, flat, treeless plain. The soil is sandy. and the grass has either been worn away or cropped off by the Indian horse herds. Some firewood must be available nearby, as is seen from the log on which the women are seated. The Indians are dressed in their best clothes for the picture-making, but the three men on the right are indifferent to the work of the photographer, being absorbed in a gambling game
