Following a first visit to Taos, New Mexico, in 1893, Joseph Henry Sharp was continually inspired by the local Pueblo Indian community and eventually became a permanent resident of the area. In the present work, the artist employs two of his favorite studio props: the seated figure's embellished leggings and a floral head wreath.
