Visions of the Sacred "The Cheyenne Prophet" by Diana Stanley. Third of the series.Bradford Exchange 1994. Suggested Retail $60.00
From an indigo night sky jeweled with golden stars he comes.
Silent as a shadow, his powers enable him to change shapes at will. From a great buffalo, provider of food, clothing, shelter and tools to the coyote, able to survive in all environments to the proud eagle, with his keen predatory spirit...the lord of the air.
He comes as "The Cheyenne Prophet," Motzeyouf.
With grace and strength and wisdom, he comes, his mystical visits in the guise of animals having helped shape Cheyenne society. The Red Shield Warriors. The Coyotes. The Elk. The Bow Strings. The Cheyenne Dog Soldiers...each represents a different class of people in the Cheyenne culture. And each class remains mystically bonded with the sacred symbol of life it represents.
Driven from his Cheyenne tribe by a young chief jealous of his mystical powers, Motzeyouf lives on in the proud Cheyenne heritage and continues to affirm the legacy that spiritually
distinguishes Native Americans from the white man.
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.
