Note:

A label on the reverse of this artwork explains, “On the appointed day the villagers bring the gifts to the centre of the village to be presented to the orphans.

Among the gifts are corn, pumpkins, squash, beans, oxroot, berries, cornmash, fish, furs, and wampum trinkets.

The mood is festive as the villagers happily give up their possessions.

The woman in the foreground donates her precious beads, and a returning fisherman in the background gives his catch of the day.”
