Vintage Hopi Snow Maiden Kachina Doll
This Vintage Hopi Snow Maiden Kachina Doll was hand carved and painted by Aaron Joseph. Depicting Nuvak'chin Mana, this supernaturals' presence is a prayer for the coming cold weather, that replenishes the ground with moisture. Wearing a traditional tunic, a tray of watermelon is offered for blessings or to feed onlookers in the Going Home (Niman) Ceremony. About 9-1/2" tall (includes base) and 3-1/2" at the widest, it's signed and named, and in very good, used condition. This Vintage Hopi Snow Maiden Kachina Doll is one of a kind!
There are a few First Mesa carvers named Joseph and referenced in Schaaf's "Hopi Katsina: 1600 Artist Biographies", but Aaron is not mentioned.
