Northwoods Spirit - "Forest Echo" by David Wenzel. Third plate in the series. Bradford exchange, 1995. Plate size approx 8 inches. Suggested retail $55.00.
They slip silently through the woods. Although only September, already their fur is becoming the heavy coat they'll need to endure the relentless snow and cold of a brutal winter in the Northwoods.
These two are survivors, the descendants of those wolves who eluded man's profitable bounties, who have the strength and stamina for the daily hunt, and who have the wits and savvy to eke out a life deep in the woods.
Above the oak and maple, fir and beech groan in the wind that roars from the north and echoes through the forest ... a sure sign of the frozen months to come.
Artist David Wenzel knows and loves these magnificent wolves like maybe no else. And here he has captured a male and female as they peer through a thicket of birch saplings along the edge of a stream. Their coats provide such perfect camouflage that they are
barely distinguishable from the undergrowth. They sense a white-tailed deer to be nearby and they lie in wait. In their eyes you can see the intensity that they must bring to their brutal task—to make the kill and survive to see the cold light of another day.
The creation of the fine collector's plate you have just acquired and whose authenticity is certified by this document is the result of work by an international cadre of skilled artisans. After the plate art was created in the United States, a fine ceramic transfer, incorporating pigments carefully chosen to faithfully re-create the vibrant beauty of the artist's original, was created in France and Germany and permanently fired into the fine Japanese porcelain plate body at more than 1,460° Fahrenheit by talented craftsmen and craftswomen in the I United States
