About the Art The inhospitable landscape reflects the cautiousness of five Apache warriors in "The Hostile Land." Grim, unrelenting rocks, under a threatening sky, seems to resound with every hoofbeat. Each man is tense and watchful, anticipating . . . what? An ambush? A flash flood? White hunters?
Many tribes of the Southwest were aggressive and warlike. The Apaches were particularly so and they were efficient raiders, something the white settlers found intolerable. For this reason, Apaches were hunted without remorse - not just by white men but by Mexicans and other Indians. Even in their own territories, Apaches were not safe from raids and hunters. "The Hostile Land" characterizes the suspense with which Apache warriors lived in order to survive.
