| General Notes | A black and white photograph of an old Native American woman sitting on a wooden ladderback chair in front of the door of a wooden building. The door is shut and the doorknob and keyhole visible. The woman wears a gingham dress which buttons up the front, with a dark belt or tie around her waist which has a fringe at its end. There is a tear in the dress behind her right shoulder. Her graying hair hangs in front of her in skinny braids, and she wears a long necklace of large, rounded, dark and light beads. On her left knee she holds an openwork basket that has a zigzag design and possibly beading and a hank of wool or twine wrapped around its handle. On her right knee is a partly-woven item with its tangled ends hanging free.
