DescriptionA group of Native Americans are gathered beneath a huge. darkly etched cottonwood tree. Two women and a male dominate the center of the image. In front of them another woman is approaching. The etching of these figures is light in contrast with the darker forms around; mothers tending to children, men huddled in conversation. A small boy walks forward center carrying a bowl.
