I am told...two little billy goats were rearing up, clashing into each other when, suddenly, I laughed my first laugh. Right away, they said, let's have a little feast for him."
A Navaho elder
A Native American mother brings her child into the sunlight for his naming ceremony. But this is only the first of many celebrations.
For example, a baby's first laugh calls for a party. The Navaho hold a "giveaway ritual" where gifts of food and small keepsakes are given to all who attend. This establishes the child as a member of the tribe. The Omaha mark a child's first steps with an elaborate fete.
This deep affection that Native Americans display for every special moment in the lives of their children is expressed by celebrated artist Lee Bogle in another breathtaking demonstration of his award-winning artistry. He blends a realistic view of the mother and child with an almost mystical impression of sunlight and shadow.
The young mother holds her child in loving closeness. "Tender Moment" is a heartwarming addition to your Sacred Bond series.
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.
