DescriptionAgainst a black night sky, a single figure rides horseback, in profile, facing left. The horse is light brown with a white mane and tail. The man wears a white hat with his coat collar turned up. Horizontal tan clouds are in the sky. A single gray tree stands on a gray mesa on the right. The near and middle ground of the landscape are white and grey, but the distant ground is golden.
The Indian Arts Research Center, in collaboration with Native American community scholars, strives to present accurate collections records. Records may be updated as new information becomes available and is reviewed with the Native American community having cultural affinity to particular items. Please write to iarc@sarsf.org if you have questions or concerns related to the documentation.
