The illustrations span 2,000 years — from prehistoric pipe bowls carved in stone that date back to 100 B.C., to 20th-century painted pottery designs that are based on traditional motifs. Florals, hunting scenes, stylized plants and animals, mythological figures, geometrics, double-curve motifs, feather designs, pictographs, border patterns, and many other designs have been selected and reproduced from the painted pottery of the Hopi, Hohokam, and Pueblo Indians; Navajo blankets and silverwork; wampum belts, quill work from Métis skin coats; parfleches (rawhide containers), buffalo hides, and ceremonial pipes of the Sioux and other Plains Indians; antler combs of the Susquehannock and Seneca Iroquois; carved and painted masks; Chilkat blankets, spindle whorls, baskets and basket hats from the Northwest Coast; and many other examples of native North American art. In addition to the wealth of authentic pictorial images, the author has provided an informative introduction outlining the principal developments in Indian arts and crafts with particular reference to the techniques used in pottery, basketry, weaving, and more. Notes on the designs give dates, dimensions, present locations of the artifacts and other data, while a bibliography suggests books for further reading. Artists and craftspeople seeking genuine Indian designs will find this easily affordable, royalty-free volume an abundant source of timeless images. Students, teachers, art and cultural historians, as well as anyone interested in Indian art will welcome this impressive array of fine designs produced by the native people of North America. Review: MIL loved it - My MIL is a art and history fan and was a collector of Native American objects throughout her life. Now she is in a nursing home and doesn’t have any of her personal items anymore, and has been of course isolated during the pandemic. She loves these historical coloring books and I feel they have really kept her going and kept her mind working in a positive way. We get a gift of a stack of colored in pictures every week from her! Review: We're Happy! - I purchased this item and one other similar book and had them shipped to a friend who wanted some Native designs she could use in her quilts. All I can say is that she called and told me they arrived and that she loved both of them. If she's happy, I'm happy. :) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #161,842 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #50 in Graphic Design Clip Art (Books) #131 in Decorative Arts #256 in Native American History (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 113 Reviews | ## Images ![North American Indian Designs for Artists and Craftspeople (Dover Pictorial Archive) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81OwDHVU5eL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ MIL loved it *by J***E on March 18, 2021* My MIL is a art and history fan and was a collector of Native American objects throughout her life.
