Description: The reverse reads:
"This very rare sketch of the Montauk Royal Family was made in 1879 by an artist who visited King David Pharoah and his family at their cabin in Indian Field, the old reservation. King David was on his deathbed at the time and refused the artist permission to sketch him but allowed him to sketch a photo at the foot of the bed from which this sketch was taken. The woman on the left is King David's mother, King David is seated in the middle, his wife Queen Maria is on the right. In the rear standing is his son Wyandank who upon his father's death becamse the King of the tribe. Wyandank was nine when this sketch was taken. See Photo 3 for a glimpse of Wyandank at the age of 57."
