Description
A Cheyenne, wearing an eagle feather bonnet with a long trailer, cuts the head of his Shoshone opponent. The horse, decorated for battle, has been trained to stand by. Both men's rifles lie on the ground. In this drawing, possibly drawn by Red Eagle, the pursuit of the Shoshone who is on foot is shown by the hoof prints and dashes leading to him.
