The present work likely depicts a Southwestern scene celebrating Spanish dance and music. According to Brian W. Dippie, Charles Marion Russell "knew that the Southwest would never be his country, but after he and [his wife] Nancy began wintering in California in 1920 and exhibiting in Los Angeles and Santa Barbara, he sometimes substituted Navajos for Plains Indians and vaqueros for the cowpunchers of his youth to give his work added appeal." (B.B. Price, ed., Charles M. Russell: A Catalogue Raisonné, Norman, Oklahoma, 2007, p. 43)
