Arnold Friberg

Available from the publisher. Early in the 1940's, Friberg
saw "the most splendid Indian birchbark canoe" in a 
Chicago museum. He made a sketch and used it as a basis
for several paintings, but finally wanted to capture it more richly
as the subject of a large new painting. When he returned to the
museum, they had long since discontinued the exhibit and
the canoe was found dirty and falling apart in storage. It lives
on in its full glory in this painting, afloat in a calm lake
the Indians considered sacred. "Manitou" is the Indian name
for God.
