Description: Nice (France): Originally published by C. Szwedzicki, 1929. Republished by Bell Editions, Santa Fe, 1979. Awa Tsireh, also known as Alfonso Roybal and Cattail Bird, was a San Ildefonso Pueblo painter and artist in several genres including metalwork. He was part of the art movement known as the San Ildefonso Self-Taught Group. His work is held by several museums, including the Smithsonian American Art Museum. A now-famous portfolio of silk-screened prints was published in France in 1929 with only 500 original copies. Then, in 1979, Bell Editions, Inc. of Santa Fe NM, published a facsimile edition of the 1929 edition. These prints are rare reproductions of the original paintings and are meant to depict life as seen and experienced by Native Americans. This print is one of many that Awa Tsireh created illustrating Pueblo life and symbols. The size of this limited edition print is 15.75" x 20" on stiff heavy paper and are printed by six-color offset lithography.
