It has been professionally framed to keep it in such condition. My father, who was an avid collector of his works, obtained this piece from the artist along with many others.  My family has been the only owner of this particular drawing.  Jimenez adapts the ancient mythological story to the American Indians' saga. He was known for his often controversial work and felt that he constantly needed to push the limits. In this drawing he does just that, and sums up the plite of the North American Indian in one piece of art.  Because of the significance of this artwork, returns are not accepted (to keep travel at a minimum).
