The following is copied from the Trail of Painted Ponies Registry Collector's Guide (of which I am a member):
Navajo Black Beauty Pony Story: As well as for their famous rugs, Navajo weavers are known for their beautiful, pictorial basket weavings. Many illustrate themes and tell stories that preserve Navajo history. Barbara Duzan, an Arizona artist who has distinguished herself internationally with her one-of-a-kind beaded animals, wanted to pay special tribute to this unique tribal tradition by beading a Pony that carried "Man Placing the Stars," a Navajo creation myth, on one side of her Navajo Black BeautyPony and "Sun's Journey through the Sky" on the other. Each design is rendered in the Navajo basket weaver's style. Item #: 12254 Release Date: Summer 2007 Artist: Barbara Duzan Material: Resin Size: 7" Tall Form: Walking Retired: January 2009 Last Number at Retirement: 3E/1802
