Picasso Marble Frog by Herbert Him

$ 180.00

A prominent gray, tan, brown and black veined Picasso marble frog with turquoise eyes inlaid to the raised eye sockets by Herbert Him carved protecting the village he stands on top of. There is a base carved in the same stone with incised lines creating the walls of the village and a Zuni prayer bowl is created as well - positioned between the front legs - quite lovely! Frogs are the result of water so are associated with the prominence of rain and are used to encourage the growth of crops. Zuni believe the frog is a reminder that we are all the same - development wise - we begin as tiny fishlike creatures in the womb then we evolve from swimmers to creatures of the land. The frogs sings its song reminding us of our watery beginning.
