Description:
|
From: Sioux Indian Painting. Vol. 1, p. 13: The dance is ceremonial and presented by members of the horse society or cult. Painting on both horses and men indicates that thunder and lightening are significant in the cult ideas, while the horn-like ornaments and the masks of the fore-ground rider and his steed imply that the buffalo is important. Painting on canvas. (Collection of H.B. Alexander) Text references: Sioux Indian Painting. Vol. 1, pp. 10, 13
