WSP-36 – Shield Painter
For many Native American peoples of the Great Plains, a warrior’s shield could carry significance far beyond its practical purpose in battle. Shields might be decorated with distinctive designs and imagery, creating highly individual objects associated with their owners.
WSP-36 – Shield Painter captures a quieter and particularly interesting aspect of Plains life, depicting the careful decoration of a warrior’s shield rather than another moment of battle.
It is figures such as this that can give a diorama real character, showing everyday skills, traditions and activities alongside warriors, hunters and horses. Positioned within a camp scene, the Shield Painter provides an immediate storytelling focal point.
The Military Workshop is pleased to offer this distinctive John Jenkins figure from the Whiskey, Scalps & Beaver Pelts collection.
Brand: John Jenkins
