Native American Jemez Made Storyteller with Pot

Description

Native American Jemez Made Storyteller with Pot by Felicia Fragua

This is a classic storyteller by Felicia Fragua from Jemez, NM. The woman telling stories of her cultural history as she finishes her pot. The storyteller is an adaptation of centuries-old creations in figurine pottery. Cultural traditions and values have historically been passed on by tribal elders through songs an stories geared to teaching the young. It is in these delightful representations that the intense love of the Native American Indians for their children is most clearly shown. I really love her pale blue patterned dress.
