Pictorial weavings developed through experimentation across the reservation appearing as early as the 1840's. Landscapes, animals, and holiday themes are a few examples of the subject matter displayed in Pictorials. One of the most distinctive types of pictorials is that of the rock formations in Monument Valley, a specialty of Dinnehotso. Some weavers add scenes of Navajo traditional life and ceremonies in the setting of the Valley.
