A cartes de visite which features a seated portrait of Native American Nag-ga-rash, the head chief of the Iowa Indians, dressed in traditional attire. Nag-ga-rash was a significant figure in treaty negotiations with the U.S. government, representing his tribe during the treaties of 1854 and 1861. He is depicted holding a ceremonial fan and dressed in a patterned shirt, with a turban-style headdress adorned with feathers. This photograph was likely taken during his tenure as a tribal leader, capturing his dignified presence.
