"Raven Steals the
Sun"
Print of Raven Steals the Sun. Among the First Peoples of the
Northwest Coast, Raven is a central figure in stories of the mythological
times. He is known as a trickster and a transformer. He usually does things
to benefit himself but is also very beneficial to the people. Raven heard
about "The old man at the head of the Nass River" who had control of the
sun. He decided the people needed to stop living in the darkness so he set
about finding a way to trick him out of the sun. He accomplished this by
transforming himself into a human. In the print, this transformation is
represented by a human figure within the body. Copper-colored formline was
used instead of black because the Copper or Tináa
represented great wealth. By Ross Nannauck III.
16x21 inches. $100.00. (#1402) |
