Howard Terpning saw this scene in the early morning as dawn broke over the northern Montana. The rising sun was in bright contrast to the dark blue shadows marking the distant mountains and deep canyons. At the time he was atop Chief Mountain with George Kicking Woman, a Medicine Man of the Peigan Nation:
"Influencing every part of their lives, the Blackfeet legends included tales of the tribes' origin, their religion, heroic deeds of their people and the evil ways of their enemies. I've tried to capture the mood of a sacred time," says Terpning, "where a young man learns of this past and his future responsibilities."
"Telling of the Legends" is a remarkable 51"w x 31"h Anniversary Edition Museum Edition Canvas. The original work of this work was sold at the Coeur d'Alene Auction in 2013 for over $1.7 million.
