DescriptionA young Apache woman is walking behind her husband at Santa Ana Pueblo. She glances toward the viewer, her fringed shawl and long skirt gracefully moving as she walks. There is deep contrast in the skirt and dark hair, balanced by the figure in front and the white teepee beside them. Her look is pensive, direct, revealing her pride and strength.
