- Description
- Two crying babies swaddled in cradleboards are leaned up against a wooden lattice fence. Vine leaves and flowers, some dead, hang over and through the lattice. The cradleboards are simple in style; each has a hoop that rises above the children's' heads, and two strings of beads hang from the central area of both hoops. On top of their clothing each is wrapped in a dark blanket and then a striped blanket; the striped blankets are laced up the front to keep the child in the cradleboard. Both wear mocassins.
