Description
Photograph of a composite image of a Walapai Indian with a basket (papoose?) on her back, [s.d.]. The woman stands smiling towards the left with a woven, cone-shaped basket hanging from her head by the strap. A dark, spotted blanket with squares around its border is wrapped around her covering her dark shirt and lightly-colored skirt. A striped, woven blanket lies at her feet in the foreground with a deteriorated, wood-paneled wall on the left while sand blankets the ground behind her into the distance.
