Featured in this lot we have a Signed Limited Edition Giclee on Canvas print by Howard Terpning titled "Medicine Shield of the Blackfoot". 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. "Medicine Shield of the Blackfoot" shows the image of two Blackfoot Native American warriors crouching in the sunlight and holding shields, an arrow quiver visible on the back of the left warrior.
