A broadside calendar with, at the top, a portrait of six Osage Indians from the U.S. who visited France in 1827. The portrait of the Indians forms the upper third of the sheet. The figures are shown from the waist up and each is numbered; four men and two women are depicted. A column on the left side of the calendar, "Notice sur les Osages," lists their names as well as information about them and their journey to France. The middle six columns, which are divided in half horizontally, contain the calendar. The column on the right, "La giraffe: envoyee a S.M. Charles X, par le pacha d’Egypte," has an illustration of a giraffe and describes the one given to Charles X and its journey to France.
