Carl Winters (Standing Rock) specializes in imagery from his Lakota/Dakota community, particularly the horse motif that represents such an integral part of his people’s culture. Here, with acrylics and canvas, he evokes an older time, when weddings were also business deals and geopolitical strategies. Bride and groom wear their finest traditional dress before a border of “quillwork” symbols. The “bride price” is shown galloping in the background. Including the matting and metal frame, it is 9.75″ wide by 7″ high (dimensions approximate).
