Around the Chief's neck, a necklace made possibly from bone, teeth, and claws adds to the authenticity of his attire, highlighting the connection to nature and the traditions of his culture. His attire, including the lion cloth and the tucked-away knife, reflects both practicality and symbolic significance, emphasizing his readiness for both ceremonial and protective roles within his community. The sculpture's depiction captures the strength, resilience, and dignity associated with indigenous leaders.
Created using the "Lost Wax Method," this sculpture boasts remarkable detail and a two-tone brown patina, enhancing its visual appeal and adding depth to the portrayal of this historical figure. The signature of the artist, C.M. Russell, further authenticates the artwork and contributes to its value as a collector's item or a piece of cultural appreciation.
