title Night Fall As I Lay Dreamingdescription 4/60, 18/60; Signed;, Inscription in pencil below image area reads: "18/60, Night Fall As I Lay Dreaming, Bastida"print: Oscar Duardo; chopmark: "SHG" embossed chopmark located in the lower right corner next to image. An image of a woman lying with her eyes closed and holding a rosary. Colors are blue, red, ochre, yellow, green, purple, pink, red & orange. Purple, blue & yellow sky. A snake is in the foreground coiled facing the sunset. Southwestern type mountains with a quarter moon with deep blue clouds. River on the right side from foreground to sunset. "This print depicts a young girl who, while in her sleep, visualizes her fear of a snake curled close to her which may strike as it reaches towards the sunset. Images of unborn children within a tree (tree of life) and the dark clouds shaped like an eagle edge towards the sunset, reflecting an old Indian wise man that oversees her presence. Symbols relate to the notion of the fear of losing one's cultural identity and of the hope for children to maintain their heritage." J. Bastida Rodriguez.
