Zuni Sandstone Painting

Description

This is an acrylic painting on about 1/2″ thick native sandstone, painted by a Zuni Sheepherder while tending his flock.  These original one-of-a-kind paintings are by the famous “A. Cellicion”.  They represent religious ceremonies performed by the Zuni Indians.  It is said that he paints these while tending a flock of sheep way out in the wilds. We are lucky to find his paintings, as only a very few are made each year.
