Over his career Morrisseau painted many images
of the
Thunderbird. This one of the Thunderbird Crest is ,in my
opinion, the best that he did. It shows the confidence that
the
artist had in his imagery that he had refined for more
than 30 years.
It shows Thunderbird, not as a monster
hurling lightning bolts, but
as the gentle and understanding
protector. The protector watching
over the Spirit World.
This painting is un-conditionally guaranteed to be authentic.
A signed letter
of provenance is provided stating this guarantee
and the history of the
painting back to the artist.
