Cheyenne Mother
Size: 17½”w x 27”h
Edition Size: 600
“A nation is not conquered
Until the hearts of its women
are on the ground.
Then it is finished,
No matter how brave its warriors
Or how strong their weapons.” – Cheyenne proverb
Award-winning CA artist Howard Terpning captures the solemn pride – and tenderness – of a young Cheyenne mother. She poses in her everyday dress of doeskin, a cradleboard secured to her back by straps around her chest and shoulders. From her belt hangs a knife in an elaborately fringed and beaded sheath.
