Offered in this lot is a Quincy Tahoma print from 1952 of a brave riding a paint pony, which is spooked by a family of skunks. Quincy Tahoma was born near Tuba City, Arizona on Christmas Day in 1921. Tahoma means "Water Edge". Tahoma spent most of his life in Santa Fe, working on hundreds of paintings over two decades from the mid-1930s to 1956 as a Navajo painter and muralist. It is a debate whether Quincy Tahoma was also one of the Navajo Code talkers, who played such a critical part in the winning of World War II in the Pacific. It is believed to some that Tahoma joined the armed forces and served in the Signal Corps during World War II and that after the war, he returned to the Navajo Reservation and became a successful artist. He died in November, 1956 in Santa Fe. He left behind a tremendous legacy of art. This print shows Classical Tahoma style with color and action. The print is professionally double matted and framed and in very good condition. The visible art measures 161/2" X 101/2" and the frame measures 233/4" X 171/4".
