This painting depicts four Araucanian Indians of Chile in colorful native dress looking toward the horizon for hope of the good news of the gospel that will someday be given to them. Brother Riveros has used the strong forms and bold colors characteristic of Chilean regional art to express his concept which, as paint on canvas, is a medium more European in origin.
