This painting by Macister Rodrigues depicts the profile of a Native American chief, eyes closed in a gesture of introspection. The richly detailed figure wears a headdress of vibrant feathers in earth tones, white, and black, accented by touches of blue and red. The abstract background—featuring energetic brushstrokes of white, blue, and ochre—creates a dynamic contrast that enhances the solemnity of the portrait and the cultural richness of the subject.
