The painting shows a Plains encampment from a slightly elevated point of view. The horizon line is high in the image, with a sky featuring soft clouds in light blue, pink, and white. In the center are teepees decorated with geometric patterns in beige, brown, and red. Figures, mostly indigenous people, are depicted around the camp. In the distance, a line of figures on horses moves diagonally to the right. The brushstrokes are detailed, emphasizing the teepees' patterns and the landscape's texture. The color palette is soft, with greens and light browns dominating.
