Lurking COUGAR, wall art carving by Indigenous artist Brian Bob from the Nootka First Nation

This piece truly is beautiful, masterfully hand carved. Brian's early design of the Cougar is just stunning. Many details in the carving, powerful expression. Deep and precise cutouts, it clearly shows his many many years of experience and his talent for this art. Just a gorgeous piece of Indigenous Art from the Pacific Northwest. Dark stain applied. Signed with carved monogram at the back, prepared for wall hanging. Minor signs of gentle handling - but in fabulous condition, please have a close look. 

Measurements: 25" x 8" x 1" 

Meaning: Cougars play a mystical and secretive role in Native American mythology. On the West Coast, some tribes believe seeing a cougar or hearing its screams is an bad omen, and cougars are often associated with witchcraft. On the other hand, among tribes on the East Coast, cougars are considered noble animals with powerful hunting skills. In the legends of these tribes, Cougar is sometimes featured as a leader or warrior of the animal people.
