A stereoview photograph depicting a group of Native American leaders and U.S. officials gathered at the President's Summer House in Washington. The image, part of the "Washington City Views" series and numbered 2734, provides a glimpse into a historically significant diplomatic encounter. The photograph showcases the Native American delegation adorned in traditional clothing, seated and standing among government representatives, reflecting the cultural and political exchange of the era.

The reverse of the stereoview, published by E. & H. T. Anthony & Co., identifies the location and adds to the provenance. This piece offers exceptional historical insight into 19th-century diplomatic relations between Native American tribes and the U.S. government.
