Naming Naquayouma: A Collaborative Approach to American Murals and Indigeneity at the 1937 International Exposition

Davida Fernández-Barkan, Phillippa Pitts
Film still from Alex Dolores Salerno's film El Dios Acostado. Echo lies on his side facing away from the camera in a clearing in the grass. In front of him are dense green trees and bushes and a few small buildings in the distance. Farther away is a large mountain overlooking the scene. The sky is bright and cloudy. There is a sense of serenity and rest.
