Northwoods Spirit - "Timeless Watch" by David Wenzel. First plate in the series. Bradford exchange, 1994. Plate size approx 8 inches. Suggested retail $55.00.

In the veiled gold mist of a birch forest in autumn, two glowing eyes, like amber lanterns, gaze intently from the concealment of a tangled thicket. His keen nose delicately scents the air, detecting the musky odor of a herd of white-tailed deer in the hollow below.

It is a fine, healthy herd ... much to the young grey wolf's disappointment. His prey is the sick, crippled, and old. It is Nature's first unyielding Law, ensuring the survival of a species by culling the weak from the strong.

The solitary grey lord of the wilderness will not have much luck with this herd. But still he waits and watches motionlessly for hours, undetected by the grazing deer ... a wait as timeless and instinctive as the wolf's own primeval urge to lift his haunting voice in song to the white moon.

Acclaimed wildlife artist David Wenzel brings you face to face with a great-hearted prince of the forest in his new limited edition plate series, Northwoods Spirit.

The uncanny realism and subtle nuances of every detail convey all the essence of ageless wisdom in the steady scrutiny of this noble grey spirit of the wild.

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 United States.
