Description

This black and white landscape-oriented photo of George F. Sternberg and another paleontologist standing opposite one another on two striated rock formations. The men reach out one hand to each other, connecting over the gap between eroded hoodoo formations. An upturned root cluster takes up the lower right-hand corner of the photograph. Two horses and one additional person are farther in the background of the space between formations. The person is seen dismounting their horse. Dry shrub brush covers the field where the person and the horse are. An outcrop is seen near the mid-right side of the photograph and in the farthest background. Numbers are written below the photograph. Related materials state this photograph was taken in the "badlands of Canada, about 1921." (pg. 56).
