A standing figure at the centre, wearing a feathered headdress and draped garment and holding a long staff raised in one hand, addresses a semicircle of seated and standing figures, some of whom wear cloth wraps and one of whom is a seated figure in the foreground. The caption printed beneath the image reads "A Sachem exhorting the Indians to War".Described automatically by a vision model; may contain mistakes.
