Description
A Native American woman, identified as Alice Pate-wa of the Umatilla Tribe, is standing on a large rock in front of a stand of trees. She has an infant in a cradleboard strapped to her back. The woman is wearing a floral design cloth dress with a scarf tied under her chin. Her hair is in a long braid and she is holding a white hankerchief or small cloth. The cradleboard is buckskin with a beaded, floral design top. The baby's head is tucked in the hood of the cradleboard, showing just a profile of the face. The ground around them is covered by several large and small rocks. The trees are full of leaves that almost screen out the horizon beyond.
