| Sumario: | If the Southwest is known for its distinctive regional culture, it is not only the Indigenous influences that make it so. As Anglo Americans moved into the territories of the greater Southwest, they brought with them a desire to reestablish the highest culture of their former homes: opera, painting, sculpture, architecture, and literature.
