A black and white gelatin photograph of a figure at an outdoor event in New York City, 1964. At center of the image is a person captured in profile, holding a soda can with a clear straw in their proper left hand. Their hair is tied into many small knots with ribbons and they wear large chandelier earrings, several beaded necklaces, a long floral halter top, a waist sash, and dark chaps that tie at the upper thigh. A woven purse with floral design is over their left arm. In the background is a crowd of people. A handwritten inscription on the verso reads "Studio B."
