Exhibited: The Abe Hays Family Maynard Dixon Collection, Western Spirit: Scottsdale’s Museum of the West, Scottsdale, AZ, 2020-2021 In 1923, Maynard Dixon and his second wife, Dorothea Lange, went to Walpi on the Hopi Reservation in Northern Arizona. After arriving and seeing the distressing conditions of some of the Walpi residents, Lange and their travel companion decided to return to San Francisco, leaving Dixon in the village. He stayed for four months. One of the paintings he brought back with him was Walls of Walpi, which Don Hagerty calls “a haunting, almost ghostly image bathed in the golden light and dust of Hopi country.”
