Tommie Jumper is named as the subject here, identified in the record as a chief of the Seminole people in Florida. The print carries no recorded date, so its exact moment is uncertain. Photographs of Seminole people from this period were often made as the state's tourist economy grew and visitors and collectors took an interest in Indigenous communities in the Everglades and surrounding areas. The portrait belongs to the Wittemann Collection at the Library of Congress, and it is worth viewing with that context in mind.
