SHAMANISTIC ART
This painting, painted in a pictographic style, depicts a 'doctor' or
shaman. Shamans in cultures across the globe have for innumerable
centuries been regarded as healers.
This painting shows the shaman's powers. Near the central figure of
the doctor is his retort where he grinds his medicines.
