This is another very nice Native American portrait, of an Arapahoe woman called Freckled Face. We see in excellent detail the traditional dress she wears, covered with shells. She also has a necklace of beads and collar of white porcupine quills. She also wears another item around her neck that resembles a miniature version of the man’s breast-plate. We can also see her silver bracelet, rings and earrings. Her hair is arranged in the very traditional manner, parted at the center and braided, with the two braids brought forward over the shoulders, and finished at the ends with dangling ribbons.

This public domain image is attributed to Frank A Rinehart, but those of you who are following along with posts in this blog will remember that a couple weeks ago we showed you an image of Apache Chief Naiche which was taken by Adolph Muhr, but copyrighted by Rinehart. We have no way of knowing for sure if Rinhart took this image, or it was another that he purchased from some other photographer.
