For your consideration is this signed limited edition lithograph by Howard Terpning titled, "With Mother Earth" done in 1995. This limited edition lithograph is hand signed and numbered by the artist on the lithograph and is hand numbered on the original Certificate of Authenticity. Terpning first gained attention with his captivating advertising and story illustrations, film fans praised his movie posters for such classics as The Sound of Music, Dr. Zhivago and the re-issue of Gone with the Wind. But his love of the West and Native American traditions saw his transition to fine art. Howard Terpning is one of the most desired, notable and most lauded painters of Western art of the 21st century and is known for his impressive depictions of the Native American Indian culture. His awards are so numerous and he is honored with them so often, that to list them would require changing the count every few months. To name three would be to cite the highest prizes awarded to Western art: countless awards from the Cowboy Artists of America, the Hubbard Art Award for Excellence, the National Academy of Western Art's Prix de West and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Autry National Center. Terpning is also an Emeritus member of the Cowboy Artists of America. "With Mother Earth" shows a group of Blackfeet tribe Native Americans gathered around a cliff face taking in the beauty of the natural surroundings of the open plains, rolling hills and towering mountains surrounding them. It was often the custom for braves and elders to walk away from camp in the early evening so they could admire nature's splendor. The lithograph is numbered 618 out of 1,250 and signed by the artist in the bottom left hand corner. The litho shows good condition with no signs of damage or wear and comes in the original paper sleeve. The lithograph measures 26" L x 31 1/4" W.
