Santa Fe Stroll

Roseta Santiago's 'Santa Fe Stroll' captures two Native women standing side by side, draped in blankets of rich red and pristine white. They stand against an earthy ochre backdrop, where a faded ATSF logo looms overhead, positioned near a blackware pot resting on a subtle shelf behind them. Each brushstroke in the composition enriches the scene with depth, nuance, and character, highlighting Santiago's mastery. A gold leaf frame cradles the scene, furthering its elegance and inviting viewers to appreciate the interplay of cultural symbolism and contemporary presentation.
