Another wonderful Allan Houser sculpture at the Heard Museum in Phoenix. This one is called "Apache Cradleboard". Cradleboards were used by generations of Apache women to hold their babies and the sweeping of the mother's wrap around the baby conveys the parental protection between mother and child.

Beautiful piece.
Didn't even need a hint about the location. We forget that we are trespassers on their land and culture.
As soon as I saw the thumbnail I said "Allan Houser!"
Oh, how I love that man's work!
Beautiful sculpture by one of my favorite artists.
