The image depicts four individuals engaged in a cultural performance. Two are playing drums, wearing traditional garments with feathered headdresses. The other two are crouching, wearing elaborate costumes with headdresses adorned with antlers, long-sleeved tops, and skirts with patterns. Small pine branches are attached to their sleeves and waists. They hold embellished sticks and the background is plain.
