DescriptionAt an Inter-Tribal ceremony in Gallup, New Mexico, a Pueblo woman weaves a basket. A crowd stands behind and alongside her. Her head and eyes are directed downward, focused on the work at hand. She wears a multi-colored, beaded necklace around her neck. She is seated on the ground and her legs and feet are wrapped in white cloth. She works on the weaving in her lap. To the left of her are supplies and reeds.On View
