Sight Height 21.25 in., Width 19 in. Framed Height 25 in., Width 23 in. Framed Navajo sand painting by Eugene Baatsoslanii (b. 1951), executed on board and signed by the artist. The composition reflects traditional Dine (Navajo) ceremonial imagery, rendered in colored sand and fixed to a rigid support for commercial presentation. The work is mounted within an intricately carved wooden mat, complementing the geometric and symbolic qualities of the sand painting. Such framed sand paintings are distinct from ceremonial sand paintings created for healing rites; these examples are produced specifically for the art market and private collection. Signed by the artist.
