"The first thing I noticed about this charming scene was the colorful and unique cradleboard," relayed artist Don Crowley. "Each tribe has its won design and this is an Apache cradleboard, naturally, since the baby is Apache and only a few month's old. Adding to the atmosphere is the colorful Pendleton blanket, an item commonly found at the trading post on the reservation. Every family has two or three of them. The flowers around the cradleboard are brittlebush."
