Product Information
Enesco. The Trail of Painted Ponies Collection. Artist: Ross Lampshire. I absolutely love this collection and am thrilled to now carry it. This is the first piece of many we'll be getting over the next few months, each one as gorgeous as the next. I love horses and I love Native American culture, so I of course love the beautiful blending of the two in this collection. "Dream Warriors" is a gorgeous example of this blending.
Here's how the artist of this piece, Ross Lampshire, describes it: "'Dream Warriors' depicts two versions of a symbolic dreamlike vision. One side has a medicine man in a buffalo headdress, representing the spiritual side of warfare, who is raising a war club as he rides into battle. The other side shows a brave, representing physical strength, who rides into battle with a coup stick. Combined, the two sides show how closely the spiritual and physical worlds interact, and the message is you cannot have victory on one side without victory on the other. As for the ultimate outcome, both warriors are riding into battle, bathed in the victorious illumination of a full moon that is breaking through the uncertainty represented by clouds."
Dimensions: 7"H x 2"W x 8"L
About The Trail of Painted Ponies Collection, from the Enesco site: The Trail of Painted Ponies was born and bred in Santa Fe, New Mexico. It began as a public art project that invited artists to transform life-size horse sculptures into original works of art. The collection explores the inspirational power of the horse by giving artists the opportunity to paint and embellish elegantly designed horse sculptures, which are crafted into highly detailed, collectible figurines that honor the spirit and capture the power, beauty and magic of the original artworks.
