Old Chief's Story  - portrait by western artist Z. S. Liang available from Prickly Pear Galleries.

 

“Many years ago,” says artist Z. S. Liang, “this Lakota chief fought bravely in the Battle of the Little Bighorn. Now he recounts the story of the battle, when just as today he donned his golden-eagle-feather war bonnet. There is sadness in his eyes and his mouth is drawn tight. The story is almost finished. It is up to you, the listener, to remember, and tell the story when he is done.”
