- Description
- A large woven tapestry featuring a central image of figures in ornate european 17th century clothing on a dias facing a large Bison. Around the Bison are other animals: a mule deer, a raven and crow, a magpie, and a squirrel. 4 other black birds are on the bison’s shoulders and another bird is on it’s rump. The ground is a geometric tiled floor and Cascade mountain rises up in the background. In the sky a small helicopter can be seen long lining. This scene is edged in gold thread with a thick blue border full of flora and fauna of the rockies. The bottom two corners have scrollwork, framing “SUMMIT” over a row of pink flowers in bottom centre.
