Poster Four Corners Image
This popular oblique image offers a unique view of the Four Corners area of the American Southwest. Striking detail and geographic relief make this image a one-of-a-kind. Due to its obliqueness, this is not a true map as it is foreshortened therefore not to scale North to South. Parts of this image also appear to be three-dimensional, especially the Colorado River canyons.

Southwest watercolor artist Jan Wright experienced first hand the magic of Luminaria Night at Mesa Verde National Park, when Spruce Tree House is illuminated by lanterns, paths are lined with candles, music abounds, and the park provides free chili and hot drinks.

Poster Nevada Horses
In 1937 Mesa Verde Association purchased “Nevada Horses” from Navajo artist Gerald Nailor. It was subsequently donated to the Mesa Verde National Park and currently hangs in the Chapin Mesa Archaeological Museum.
Nailor was born in 1917 in Pinedale, New Mexico; his Navajo name is Toh Yah (Walking By the River). He enrolled in the Albuquerque Indian School from 1930 to 1934. After that he attended the Santa Fe Indian School, where he studied art under Dorothy Dunn from 1935 to 1937. His paintings are among the rarest of the Dorothy Dunn student's works because of his early death.
In 1939, Nailor, Houser and Velino Shije Herrera were commissioned by the WPA to paint a large mural, which is still installed in the Main Interior Building in Washington, D.C. In 1942, Nailor was selected for a commission of a mural for the Navajo Nation Council Chamber in Window Rock, Arizona, to depict the history of the Navajo people. In 2004, the building (and its mural) was declared a National Historic Landmark.
