Very fine old Native American hand painted buffalo hide. Hide painting is a traditional Plains Indian art form featuring geometric, battle and hunting exploits, "winter counts", and designs inspired by visions and dreams. The painted hides served as tipi coverings, clothing, and bedding. As robes, they were worn with the warm fur on the inside against the body, the painted side on the outside, and traditionally wrapped around the body with the head end to the left.~~ DEAR BIDDERS, Please View More Detailed Close-Up Images by visiting our website – Sofedesignauctions.com ~ Thank you ! ~~~~~~.
