DescriptionCentral to the image is a female figure kneeling with arms outstretched and eyes gazing upward. She is wearing a pink dress. Around her kneel five other figures, all dressed in subdued browns, with heads bowed. From the distance a line of seagulls flies to the foreground and begins to land around the group of figures. The background is open prairie fading into mountains and sky.
