The Roundup barns encircle to represent sheltering protection and endurance against the torrent of time and enclose and embrace in itself the landscape. They, like people, are both individual and part of a larger landscape. These are all Arkansas barns captured in Hope's haunts about the state as she scans ever back and forth, looking for gems to photograph. Some were easily found and accessible. Others she captured from outside barbed wire and no trespassing signs.
