Experience the rich tapestry of the American West with Stands Holy, a stunning limited edition print by renowned artist Marianne Millar.
Fully beaded dresses, such as this one, frequently weighed 15 to 20 pounds, and were never used for everyday apparel, but only for important or festive occasions. Such extensively beaded pieces such as the dress, leggings, and moccasins were produced during the Reservation Period when time for sedentary activity was ample.
Beautiful and proud, Stands Holy is a perfect example of Sioux womanhood. This young woman was raised to revere the traditions and beliefs of her tribe, and pass those ways along to her children, just as her father did – the famous Sioux chief, Sitting Bull.
Enjoy the look of the original painting with hand embellished, painted “beads” highlighting the dress, leggings, and moccasins. Incredibly detailed, textured beads are hand painted by the artist and finished with a gloss varnish. This technique gives the look and feel of actual glass seed beads. Can be added to the 40" x 60" inch print only, for an additional $3000. Please contact Marianne with any questions.
