Remark:
This plate is the first in a collection of 4 Norval Morrisseau plates with the theme ‘Children Of Mother Earth’. They came in special Morrisseau boxes with certificates and wooden stands.
The others plates are:
- ‘Children Of Mother Earth – Summer’, click here;
- ‘Children Of Mother Earth – Fall (Autumn)’, click here;
- ‘Children Of Mother Earth – Winter’, click here.
These come with photos of the plate itself instead of the design images.
Note:
1) One of Morrisseau’s dealer at the time has stated that from the original
planned 2500 sets only about 500 where made. So far I have seen no
edition number above 388.
2) These plates are hand signed and numbered in gold on the backside.
