Two Indigenous men are shown cooking fish over a fire. Two fish are laid out on a rack over the flames, two others are propped up with sticks tail-down on the ground by the fire. The rack is composed of four forked sticks propped vertically on the ground, with four others forming a square horizontal to the ground, and five more laid across the the square forming a rack. One of the men holds a forked stick, the other carries a basket of fish slung across his back. Both men wear fringed garments tied around their waists and have a single feather in their hair.
