DescriptionDancers perform for a crowd at the First American Pageant Grounds on East Central Avenue in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Seven men dance while four shrouded figures kneel in front of them. The men have their backs to the spectators who are standing and sitting on a large papier-mâché pueblo facade grandstand. There is a rope lying on the ground between the photographer and the dancers.
