STUNNING ART PIECE
NAVAJO ? SAND PAINTINGMother Earth and Father Sky not signed. Rarely do you find Sand Painting this HUGE FRAMED 26 3/4" X 40" Unframed 22" X 36" This Sand Painting creation was given to me by my Uncle. He worked in Utah with the bureau of Indian Affairs and his said one of the Navajo Native Americans he knew would do Sand Painting for him. I do not know the name of the artist and the piece is not signed. I only have my Uncle's word that it was done by a Native American person. It is stunning, however, and appears to be authentic. You be the judge and check out the photos. There is some reflection off the glass in some pictures, the sand is not faded or discolored. I am offering this piece at a conservative price because there is not a signature. I have had this piece framed in the same frame since it arrived in my home in the mid-1960's. This is Mother Earth and Father Sky. Their arms and legs are crossed because you never see them separated. The sun is shining on the seeds in the womb of Mother Earth and Father Sky has the moon and stars. The white beetle is present. The White Beetle was commissioned by the Great Father to put the Stars in the Heavens. He did such a great job everyone sung his praises. One evening as he was preparing to place the stars in the Heavens he got caught up in listening to his admirers and the sun when down. When he realized he was late he grabbed his ladder, his bucket of stars, and rushed up to the Heavens. As he stepped off the ladder at the top he tripped and fell making the milky way. -Just a little Native American Lore to help you appreciate this wonderful piece of history, art, and culture. This piece is in Mint condition The work is detailed and exquisite. The frame is rough wood and the glass is "glass" not plexiglass.
Shipping for this piece is $500 with the real glass. $150 with the glass removed. Shipping is within the continental USA only for this price. Shipping outside the continental USA can be arranged. Local Pick Up is available.Free Counseling Services at [please contact me for website address]
